  Gate. Let us explore Bhaktapur Durbar Square and see why this royal courtyard has been deemed as a
  UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along the way you can try the local curd made in Bhaktapur famous
  throughout Kathmandu valley.
• Nyatapola Temple - Nyatapola temple is a five-leveled temple over 30 meters tall. It is one of the tallest temple in Nepal. You
  can see 5 pairs of statues of ancient animals and deities at the sides along steps of the temple. It is said
  that each statue is 10 times stronger as you climb up the stairs. The temple is dedicated to the ancestral
  deity of Malla royal family: Siddhi Laxmi. The image of Siddhi Laxmi is said to be 10 feet tall but as the
  temple opens once a year in July, peaking a look is difficult.
• Dattatreya Temple - Dattatreya temple is located in the east side of Bhaktapur, in Dattatreya Square of Bhaktapur Durbar
  Square. The temple is associated with the deity Dattatreya which is composite of Brahma, Vishnu, and
  Shiva. The huge temple is said to be built using the stem of a single tree. The idols of the three gods with
  a huge tree at the back is one of its important feature.
• 55 Window Palace - Another iconic stop is the 55 Window Palace of Bhaktapur. The palace is right near the golden gate
  entrance. Its name comes from the 55 windows carved around the palace. There are carvings of many
  designs and deities around the palace with sacred wall paintings.
• Siddha Pokhari - Siddha Pokhari is a huge pond made by human at the entrance of Bhaktapur. The pond is big enough to

  beautiful.
