[Nepal Patan Durbar Square] A place of relaxation for locals filled with the beauty of Nepal

Patan is one of the three ancient cities in the Kathmandu Valley. The Patan Durbar Square in the center of the city is like a medieval art museum. This area, where the best of Newar architecture is gathered, is one of the leading cultural spots in Nepal where you can immerse yourself in history and beauty just by walking. 👀Highlights✨ 🕌 A treasure trove of Newar architecture! The majestic royal palace buildings, woven with wood carvings and bricks, spread out, and visitors will instantly travel back in time. The palace also houses the Patan Museum, which is filled with masterpieces of Newar art such as metal crafts and Buddhist sculptures. 🛕 Don't miss! Representative temples • Krishna Temple: A rare temple made of stone, with intricate Indian-style carvings. • Harishankar Temple: A temple dedicated to the fusion god of Shiva and Vishnu. • Mahaboudha Temple: A Sri Lankan-style pagoda creates a sense of exoticism! The large and small temples and pagodas scattered throughout the square are all unique, so you'll never get bored walking around. 📸 Must-see photo spot for photography lovers📷 The morning is the perfect time to take photos, as the soft light beautifully illuminates the architecture. The pigeons flying gracefully over the square and the natural smiles of local children make great photographs◎ ☕ Take a break at a nearby cafe There are many cafes near the square where you can enjoy Newari cuisine and tea. We recommend relaxing while looking down on the square from the terrace seats. Basic information📝 🕰 Opening hours: You can freely explore the area 24 hours a day (the museum is open from 10:00 to 17:00) 💰 Admission fee: 1,000 rupees (for foreigners) *Includes the entire square and the museum 📍 Access: About 30 minutes by car from central Kathmandu, local buses available 🗺 World Heritage Site: Registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site Patan Durbar Square, where Newar art and history are condensed, is a must-see attraction on your trip to Nepal! If you have time, try to enjoy the difference in light between day and evening. Spending a relaxing time while feeling the history will surely be the highlight of your trip✨ #Nepal #Nepal trip #Nepal tourism #Nepal trip #Asia trip #Kathmandu #Patan #Patan tourism #World Heritage Site #Trip to World Heritage Sites #Solo travel #Solo female traveler #Absolutely free trip
