Kathmandu Bhaktapur 01 Bhaktapur Durbar Square From West With Shiva Kedarnath Temple [2 of 36]
Bhaktapur (1401m) is a traffic-free city 13 km east of Kathmandu, with cobblestone streets linking a string of temples, courtyards and squares. Bhaktapur Durbar Square is one of the world heritage sites in Nepal, reflecting the city's rich culture, art and architectural design. The 1934 earthquake destroyed many of Bhaktapur’s Durbar Square temples. Here is a view of Bhaktapur Durbar Square from the west, with the Golden Gate and Palace of 55 Windows on the left, the Vatsala Durga Temple in the centre, and Shiva Kedarnath Temple on the right.
