The Vidhyeshvari Vajra Yogini Temple - also known as the Bijeśvarī Vajrayoginī,[2] Bidjeshwori Bajra Jogini,[3] Bijayaswar, Bidjeswori, or Visyasvari Temple[1] - is a Newar Buddhist temple in the Kathmandu valley dedicated to the Vajrayāna Buddhist deity Vajrayoginī (or Bajra Jogini in the Newar language) in her form as Akash Yogini.
The temple stands on the west bank of the Bishnumati river next to the ancient religious site of the Ramadoli (Karnadip) cremation ground and is on the main path from Swayambhunath stupa (to the west) to Kathmandu.
