KATHMANDU – Durbar Square by night

Kathmandu's Durbar Square is the heart of the old Kathmandu and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. 

Most of the buildings date from before the 17th and 18th centuries but many were rebuilt after the 1934 earthquake. This is where the city's kings were once crowned which explain the great architectural and cultural heritage one can find by wandering around the Square.
