Bhaktapur- The Historical City of NEPAL

Bhaktapur

Bhaktapur City founded in the 9th century is shaped like a conch shell. The city boasts an array of temples overlooked by the Palace with its 55 windows built by King Bhupatindra Malla. It is the best preserved of the three original cities of Kathmandu Valley, the other two being Kathmandu and Patan. You will also get to see the best example of the Pagoda style at the Nyatapola Temple.
