Mahabuddha Temple

Mahabuddha sanctuary is committed to Siddhartha Gautama, the authentic Buddha. Its development was started by minister Abhaya Raj of Patan and an individual from the Uku Baha cloister (of which the Mahabuddha is currently a branch). The sanctuary is frequently called "the sanctuary of 1,000 Buddhas" in light of the fact that a Buddha picture is engraved on each block. Its sikhara is demonstrated in the Mahabodhi Sanctuary at Bodhgaya, India which Abhaya Raj visited and wished to copy. At the point when he got back to Nepal, he was introduced as a coinmaker by the ruler — a worthwhile activity — as his high-level of information on copper creation was popular. This might have furnished him with the monetary means to support the landmark.

Centuries-Old Lost-Wax Metal Casting

Each sculpture at Handmade Handicraft is crafted using the ancient cire-perdue (lost-wax) technique, a craft perfected over a millennium by the Newar artisans of Patan. The process begins with sculpting beeswax and Himalayan tree resin by hand. A multi-layered clay mold is formed around the wax, which is melted away in the furnace, creating a void that is filled with molten red copper or bronze.

24K Mercury Gilding

Applied with pure gold leaf and fused using fire gilding for an ethereal sheen that endures for generations.

Cold-Gold Face Painting

The sacred facial features and serene gaze of deities are carefully rendered with powdered cold gold and natural pigments.

Hand-Chiseled Detailing

Intricate robes, mandalas, and jewels are carved by hand with miniature steel chisels and devotion.
