Soon after dawn on that day, King Birendra was driven to the temple of his ancestral palace, the Hanuman Dhoka ("Gate of Hanuman"). There he was smeared with mud taken from various symbolic places - the bottom of a lake, the tusk of an elephant, a mountain, the confluence of two rivers and the doorstep of a prostitute's house. Then, with Queen Aishwarya beside him, he was cleansed with butter, milk, yogurt and honey as priests chanted praises and salutations.

The coronation ceremony was attended by statesmen and political leaders from 60 nations, with the Prince of Wales representing the British Royal Family. The King's personal guests included his former housemaster at Eton, Peter Lawrence, three other masters and 15 old boys. At the ordained time, the chief priest placed on the King's head the emerald green crown, encrusted with jewels and adorned with feathers from a bird of paradise. Due to its location between Tibet and India, Nepal once stood on vital trade routes through the mountains connecting these regions.

The coinage of India inspired the coins of Nepal, and for hundreds of years Nepal has issued its own unique coins. The modern coins of Nepal are dated according to the Vikram Samvat era, which started in 57 B.

The king is believed to personify Vishnu, the Hindu preserver of life and protector of the universe. Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Nepali. (29 December 1944 1 June 2001) was the King of Nepal from 1972 until 2001. The eldest son of King Mahendra, he reigned until his death in the 2001 Nepalese royal massacre.
