DURBAR SQUARE: Patan Durbar Square, situated in the heart of the city, is the main tourist attraction. The square is full of ancient palaces, temples, and shrines noted for their exquisite carvings. One can rummage for treasures and souvenirs in the various shops around the square.

The main attraction of Patan Durbar Square is the ancient Royal Palace itself. It consists of three main chowks, or courtyards: the central Mul Chowk, Sundari Chowk and Main Keshab Narayan Chowk. In the northeastern corner of the courtyard is a triple-roofed octagonal tower, Teleju Bhawani Temple, built by King Shree Niwas Malla in 1667. Between the central Mul Chowk and Main Keshab Narayan Chowk there is the temple of Degu Taleju.
