Harisiddhi village is named by the name of goddess Harsiddhi. In ancient, there were two giants named Prachanda. One day they went to the Kailash (the place of Lord Shiva). They hurt the gate-man Nandi. Lord Shiva knew it and remembered the Goddess Chandika. Goddess appeared immediately and killed those 2 giants in order of Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva was pleased and said," from this day you will be worshipped as Harsiddhi by the people".
Nearly 60 persons are needed to perform the dance of Harsiddhi from 60 families. Gathering those families Harisiddhi village was formed. They are almost from the Maharjan Newar Caste. This village is surrounded by 4 main gates. The villagers made 8 ponds, 10 wells, 7 taps, 4 small wells, 43 patis, 46 temples of various god and goddess and 12 big public grounds. The village was not allowed to enter with leather shoes as in Pashupati temple but the people felt difficult to obey this rule. So, the people did not follow this rule now.
