This cave sits on the Prithvi Highway, 2 kilometres east of Bimalnagar. The cave is roughly a half-hour drive from Vimalnagar and is accessible to everybody. The cave is also a popular tourist destination due to the varied animals and gods' shapes and deities.
Every day, more than 200 internal and external tourists visit the 400-meter-long cave, where various games are played from time to time, according to Chairman Shrestha.
In Bimalnagar, tourist traffic for adventurous and recreational rock climbing has surged. Rock climbing and the natural beauty of the area are also appealing to visitors.
