Greiti faktai: Its 55 temples, shrines and palaces were built mainly with red fired brick and intricately designed wood carvings. The 2015 earthquake knocked down several structures, but the square has been meticulously restored using traditional techniques.
Akcentai: "Nepal Bhasa" is still used here in daily inscriptions, a language that dates back centuries and that few places keep alive. The sound of craftsmen's chisels restoring hand-carved wood is part of the square's everyday soundscape.
Vidiniai patarimai
- Climb the stairs of the Nyatapola temple for the best panoramic view of the entire square.
- Visit the National Art Museum (entry included) to see the ceremonial wooden masks.
- On weekends there are fewer craftsmen working; on weekdays you will see carvers in action.
