About Patan

Patan is a small city bordering Nepal's capital, Kathmandu. The highlight of the city is its dense Darbar square, a collection of temples concentrated in a tiny area. The entire east side of the Darbar square is dominated by the ancient royal palace complex. Damaged by war and particularly by the earthquake of 1934, it has been carefully repaired by the Nepalese government.
