    If you’re pressed for time, the stone plaque on the north side of the main hall gives the key facts: the temple dates to about 850 CE and was commissioned by King Pratap Sena, who noted the deity as Swayambhu. The inscription is short enough to read in a minute. If you need a written copy, the keeper at the entrance can hand you a quick brochure. A nearby stop could be Hotel O Saket Homes if you need a place to stretch before heading back.
