The view is great. Regarding the name of temple It is believed that around 1700 a crow found out this Shiva also there are various other stories. It is also believe that once you go to Gosaikund you need to bring the water of Gosaikund and pour in this temple. Also it is believed if crow somehow touched you then you need to visit this temple as it is believed that it is the invitation of Shiva Ji. I was one of them whom the crow touched and I got the opportunity to visit this temple. There is also famous Mela organized in this place once in a year you can Google it for Kageshwori mela as the date changes each year because of Nepali calendar. Current the road is under construction in some places so expect some off road ride comfortable in two wheeler as well. Anyway enjoy your ride to Kageshwori Mahadev. Har har...
