Visit Bhaktapur, Nepal
Jump to:
Bhaktapur lies only a short distance from the capital, but it could be another planet, so great is the difference in the atmosphere and sense of history. It really feels, despite the gradual encroachment of satellite dishes, that little has changed here for centuries.
There are so many points of interest between the focal centers of Durbar Square, Taumadhi Square and Dattatraya Square that it would be impossible to detail them all.
A stroll through the town at a leisurely pace, however, will leave you with a sense of awe and enchantment at the beautifully preserved setting, which nevertheless has a prosaic life of its own.
