Temple/Monuments Around One Day Bhaktapur Tour Package

Chardham:-  The Char Dham temples are a group of four temples that are regarded as the spot that aids in salvation or moksha. There are four such temples that are regarded as Char Dham temples in Bhaktapur as well. Because the original Char Dham temples are far away, the temples were then built for the convenience of the general people. Thus, King Bhupatindra Malla insisted on having these temples built inside the Bhaktapur Palace’s courtyard.

Rameshwor temple :- Rameshwar, a Gum Baja-style temple in front of Gopi Nath Temple, is the first temple that is visible to the right of the gate. Shiva is worshipped in this open shrine, which has four pillars.

Badrinath temple:- West of the Gopi Nath Temple lies a small shrine known locally as Badri Narayan, which is devoted to Vishnu and Naraya

Kedarnath temple:- The Kedarnath (Shiva) Temple is a Shikara-style temple made of terracotta.

Gopi Nath temple/ Jagannath:- The Gopi Nath Temple, which is connected to the Rameshwar Temple and contains the three gods Balaram, Subhadra, and Krishna, is built in the style of a two-roofed pagoda. The door is still mostly closed, making it challenging to see the deities. The temple is also known as Jagannath, another incarnation of Vishnu.

Ugrachandi and Ugrabhairab:-  It is commonly known that Ugrachandi is the most furious female deity on earth. Her name means “greater than anything else” or “limitless,” and Chandi denotes the fiercest female deity. Just behind the statue of the Ugrachandi is the sculpture of Bhairava. Together with the Ugrachandi sculpture, King Bhupatindra Malla also gave the order for its erection. The Bhairava is regarded as one of Lord Shiva’s most
dreadful manifestations, along with the Ugrachandi.

Erotic Elephant temple:- A hiti is located on the left directly before the square’s entrance (water fountain). A little Shiva-Parvati Temple with a double roof and sensual sculptures on its struts lies just 100 meters before the entrance, a few steps away but on the opposite side of the road. In the missionary pose, one of these depicts a pair of copulating elephants.

55-windows palace:- 55 Window Palace is another master of woodcarving inside the Golden gate. The palace is well recognized for its fifty-five artistically carved windows. The Shah monarch gave the palace, which had previously gone by the name Nye Nyeppa Jhya Layaku, the inspirational name Pachpane Jhyale Durbar.

In addition to the largest wood carving in Bhaktapur Durbar Square, the palace today provides us with some of the finest wall paintings from the Malla dynasty.

5-storied temple:- In the Newari language, the term “Nyatapola” refers to five stories, representing the fundamental elements. The largest and tallest pagoda ever constructed in Nepal, it features exceptional architectural design and artistic beauty. The base of the temple is supposed to be wider than its foundation. The goddess Shiddhilaxmi is worshipped in this temple. The sculptures that are arranged in a straight line on either side of the stairway serve as guardians of the temple and its resident goddess, who is visible from the temple’s base up in five layers.

Bhairav temple:- Bhairava, the most ferocious form of Lord Shiva, is the centerpiece of the Bhairab Nath Temple. It is situated at Taumadi square just beside the Nayatapola temple.

The National Art Museum:- The National Art Museum is the only museum that has sculptures from the Malla and Lichhavi eras in its collection. Manuscripts and artwork from the Malla era are kept in collections in the museum. Moreover, it still has some of the statues from the demolished temples in 1934. It is worth wandering around in the gallery, which is outside of the Royal Palace in Simhadhwoka.

Statue of Narshima and Hanuman:- Statues of Narshima and Hanuman are situated just in front of Simhadwaka Durbar’s (now the National Art Museum) doors, together with two enormous lions. The palace with lions on the gate is how the palace came to be known as Simhadhwoka durbar. King Bhupatindra Malla anchored up these two images

The Golden Gate:- King Ranjit Malla, the last Malla ruler, left behind The Golden Gate, also referred to as the Swarnadwar. It was the best invention made during that time even though it was the Malla era’s most important contribution. The replica of Taleju, Astamatrika symbols, Purna Kalash (a lucky charm), Nepalese roofing design, Ganesha temple, and the present national flag of Nepal. The gate appears to be a full package, featuring prominent spangles and Nepalese architecture, carvings, symbols, temples, and inscriptions

Vatsala Temple:- The Vatsala Devi Temple is situated in front of the palace, near to the king’s statue, and close to the Taleju Bell. Similar to the Krishna temple in Patan, this Shikhara- style temple is entirely made of sandstone and rests on a three-stage plinth. It is dedicated to the goddess Vatsala Devi, a manifestation of Durga. King Jitamitra Malla first constructed the temple in 1696. The Vatsala Durga Temple is what makes Bhaktapur Durbar Square so elegantly white. The Sri Yantra-shaped temple is dedicated to the Tantric Shakti, also known as Durga.

The Statue of King Bhupatendra Malla:- On a pillar facing the palace, the statue of King Bhupatindra Malla can be seen performing worship. This is thought to be the most stunning statue in the square.

Kumari Ghar:- Durbar Square is quite a distance away from Kumari House, the home of the living goddess. However, after seeing the area surrounding Bhaktapur Durbar Square, one can make a visit to Kumari Ghar.

Peacock window:- The Peacock window is popularly known as the Monalisa of Nepal which was from the 5 th century.
