DescriptionTusa Hiti, Sundari Chowk Water Spout Patan Durbar Square Patan Lalitpur Nepal Rajesh Dhungana (13).jpg |
English: Inside the Patan Durbar Square, a historic site in Lalitpur district, is a beautiful, unique gift of woodwork. This oval shaped Tusa hiti was made in 1647 by the Malla king Siddhinar Singh Malla. This Tusa hiti is associated with Tantric deities carved in stone or gilt metal. A small, very artistic stone replica of the Krishna Temple, about 4 feet high, is perched on its main axis. Two protective snakes have surrounded the shores of Tusa Hiti. This replica of this small artistic Krishna temple is believed to have been built as a scale model for the actual Krishna temple.
This Tusa Hiti is the most beautiful hiti in Nepal. There are also Lakshmi, Narayan gods and Garuda on the golden stream. The stream of water is very beautiful. At the top of the Tusa Hiti are statues of 24 different deities. There are 52 idols of various deities on the wall inside the hiti. One of them is a gold-plated goddess. There is also a statue of two tigers in front of Hiti. As it is in Hiti Khaldo, there are idols of gods on the right and left side. In front of Hiti, there are two tall pillars on the right and left and there is a statue of Hanuman in front of it. Located in the middle of Sundari Chowk, Tusa Hiti is very beautiful. From the stream of Hiti to the upper part, various deities, snakes, etc. have given a lot of beauty to Hiti. Entry is prohibited from going down for security reasons.
