City of temples, Kathmandu.
This is an idol stone sculptures of Jalasayana Narayana, the substitute of Buddhanilkantha which is in the Eastern part of the palace. It was build by King Pratap Malla.
Here is the Taleju temple. It is made in pyagoda style. This is the part of Hanuman Dhoka museum.
This is the idol of Nepali art, culture and tradition. The palace is decorated with carved wooden windows and panels. There you can visit King Tribhuvan Museum, the Mahendra museum
and other State rooms inside the palace.
This unique traditional window is called 'Aankhi Jhya'. We can see extensive woodcarving in Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur Durbar Squares. Aankhi means the eye and Jhyal means Window so a
window having small hole like our eyes. Through this window you can see
what's happening outside but for others its impossible to see you
inside.
A unique example of art.
The courtyard followed by the entrance is known as Nasal chowk where most royal events like coronation, yagyas and other rituals activities take place
.
With the example of extensive woodcarving here is the nine storied palace with its unique traditional architecture which are very attractive.
