Legend says that a tooth of Sati Devi fell here when Shiva was carrying her death body and roaming in agony. Hence, it got its name Dantakali, ‘Danta’ meaning ‘teeth’ and ‘Kali‘ a form of ‘Sati‘.
Agonized by her death, lord Shiva carried her deceased body around his
shoulder and wherever the parts of her body fell, today there stands
some great temples. It is situated in the middle of Hilchowk of Vijaypur
in Dharan.
