Heritage
Pilachhen is home to several tangible heritage sites, including archeological, artefacts, and monuments that are significant to a community. These are the constructions that mimic Newar architecture.
Ganesh Mandir: The Ganesh Mandir (temple) at Lachhi tole is unique in its own right. It depicts Ganesh in a dance stance as an idol. In the Kathmandu Valley, it is the only one of its kind. If you worship the dancing Ganesh, it is said that you would be blessed with a son. It is venerated on a regular basis and is most popular during Indra Jatra, when the Golden Mukut (Crown) is on exhibit. Its origin date is said to have been in 832 B.S.
Falcha (Pati): Falchas are traditional public places, mainly used by elder people. The two Falchas in Pilachhen, Lachhi tole, are Tadha Flachi and Chidha Falcha. Every day, people come to the Falchas to recite Bhajans and devotional hymns. These Falchas are regularly visited by the local people either to recite Bhajans or simply take some rest.
The Bhajans sung in Tadha Falcha are chanted throughout the year except for the month of Asar (June-July). Majority of people in Pilachhen are farmers so the Falcha is closed during that month such that the farmers could focus on plantation during the month of Asar (June-July).
