DURBAR SQUARE:

Bhaktapur's main square, Durbar Square, houses the 55-window Palace which was constructed by

King Jitamitra Malla and was home to royalty until 1769. It is now a National Gallery. Close by is the

Golden Gate which leads into Mulchok Court which is home to the Taleju Temple. This temple, like

others in the main towns of the Kathmandu Valley, is dedicated to the goddess Taleju Bhawani and

includes shrines to both the Taleju Bhawani and Kumari. Entrance to the temple is restricted to Hindus

and the living goddess strictly cannot be photographed.

The Durbar square is surrounded by spectacular architecture and vividly showcases the skills of the

Newari artists and craftsmen over several centuries. The royal palace was originally situated at

Dattaraya square and was only later moved to the Durbar square location.

The Durbar square in Bhaktapur was severely damaged by an earthquake in 1934 and hence appears

very spacious than the other ones located at Kathmandu and Patan.
