5 RáJess - 8 months ago

It is the historical place from which Kathmandu city got its place. It has been renovated because it was severly damaged by the earthquake. In the past, it used to be an important place for trading, and now it is a site of cultural heritage. The local artisans have managed to recapture the essence of ancient Nepal which you can observe in the intricate details of the architecture. It stands still.

As much as natural disasters are unavoidable so is the rebuilding process for historical monuments(in some cases), but even after seven years, it seems rebuilding has not been 100% achieved.
But at least it feels good to see Kasthamandap being rebuilt. Standing admirably and representing Kathmandu.
Respect to those artisan woodworkers and Craftsman????.
