Mankhim or Mangkhim is the temple of the Kirat (Rai), one of Nepal's most ancient ethnolinguistic groups. This Mankhim is located at Aritar, Sikkim. Here the (Rai) community assembles twice every year for the celebration of Sakewa, a day fixed for worship (usually falling in the months of April or May). In the Rai language "Mang" means Deity and "Khim" meaning House .
