Bhaktapur Durbar Square

One of the three cites in the Kathmandu valley is Bhaktapur leaving the other two Kathmandu and Patan. It is very historical place as there are a lot of temples built by different kings of different ages. Compared to the three cities Bhaktapur has made a huge leap in the local development in the infrastructures of its own. The people there have worked very hard and amicably to make Bhaktapur the best city in the valley. The Bhaktapur Durbar Square is so clean nowadays that you won’t even spit on the ways. You feel bad and ashamed spitting here and there. The 55 windowed Durbar built by Bhupatindra Malla is one of the need to see monuments at Bhaktapur. Similarly there is Nyatapole 5 Storeyed Temple built by Pratap Malla and a number of other monuments as well built by different Malla Kings. You need to go and discover the fact on your own. There are a number of good restaurants and the best thing about Bhaktapur is that, the people there are very humble and friendly. If you are looking forward to visit Bhaktapur you need not think more and just lift yourself up and head towards Bhaktapur as it is not far from the Kathmandu valley, probably a 15 to 20 minutes ride. This is the best place for anthropologists to study.
