Hanumandhoka Durbar Square--Nepal-- heart of the Kathmandu city
Human Dhoka is a complex of structure with the Royal Palace of the Malla Kings and Shah dynasty. The royal family lived in this palace till 1886, where after they shifted to Narayanhiti Palace.It was expanded by King Pratap Malla in the 17th centuary.The Hanuman Dhoka(Hanuman Dhoka Durbar in Nepali) gets its name from the stone of Hindu monkey god, Hanuman, and it is near the entryway. The statue dates from 1672; the god’s face has long disappeared under a coating of orange vermillion paste applied by generations of devotees. ‘Dhoka’ means door in Nepali.The stone inscription outside is in fifteen languages.
The Hanuman Dhoka originally housed 35 courtyards, but the 1934 earthquake reduced the palace to today’s 10 chowks (courtyards).
Sadly, the palace was hit hard by the 2015 earthquake and damage was extensive. At this time, the palace was closed for reconstruction, but it will be open again when this work is complete.
Overview
Location Durbar Square, Kathmandu
Significance Former Royal Palace of the Malla Kings
Major Attractions Nasal Chowk and Basantpur Temple
Distinctive Feature The place is home to dozens of monkeys
Famous For Coronation of Nepalese Kings
Sites To See
The following sites offer a glimpse of the culture, religion and history of the Nepal Kingdom.
• Taleju Temple
• Kal Bhairab (God of Destruction) Statue
• Nautalle Durbar
• Nasal Chowk
• The Gaddi Baithak
• The Statue of King Pratap Malla
• The Big Bell
• Big Drum
• The Jagnnath Temple
The Palace Entrance
We start from the entrance of the square. On entering the palace or Durbar square, there lies 17th century statue of Hanuman, covered in red clothes and holding an umbrella. This is a highly revered statue by the believers of Hinduism. On the left is an interesting sculpture of Lord Narasimha, the half-lion incarnation of Lord Vishnu, tearing apart the demon Hiranyakasipu. The statues and sculptures are indeed overwhelming.
Nasal Chowk
In Nepali ‘NASAL’ means ‘dancing one’. Assuming that the palace reopens,your first taste of the royal palace will be this handsome courtyard inside the main entrance. The Nasal Chowk courtyard got its name from the beautiful image of Dancing Shiva, on east side of the Chowk.Nasal Chowk was constructed in the Malla period, but many of the building around the square are constructed in Shah dynasty(Rana period). The Chowk has historical importance considering it was the place where King Gyanendra was crowned in 2001.
Beyond the door is the large Narsingha Statue , Vishnu in his man-lion incarnation, in the act of disembowelling a demon. The stone image was erected by Pratap Malla in 1673 and the inscription on the pedestal explains that he placed it here for fear that he had offended Vishnu by dancing in a Narsingha costume. The Kabindrapur Temple in Durbar Sq was built for the same reason.
Next is the Sisha Baithak, or Audience Chamber , of the Malla kings. The open verandah houses the Malla throne and contains portraits of the Shah kings.
Panch Mukhi Hanuman Temple
At the northeastern corner of Nasal Chowk stands the damaged Panch Mukhi Hanuman Temple.This venerable temple dedicated to Hanuman.It has five circular roofs. Each of the valley towns has a five-storey temple, although it is the great Nyatapola Temple of Bhaktapur that is by far the best known. Hanuman is worshipped in the temple in Kathmandu, but only the priests may enter. Source=

The Palace Entrance
We start from the entrance of the square. On entering the palace or Durbar square, there lies 17th century statue of Hanuman, covered in red clothes and holding an umbrella. This is a highly revered statue by the believers of Hinduism. On the left is an interesting sculpture of Lord Narasimha, the half-lion incarnation of Lord Vishnu, tearing apart the demon Hiranyakasipu. The statues and sculptures are indeed overwhelming.
Nasal Chowk
In Nepali ‘NASAL’ means ‘dancing one’. Assuming that the palace reopens,your first taste of the royal palace will be this handsome courtyard inside the main entrance. The Nasal Chowk courtyard got its name from the beautiful image of Dancing Shiva, on east side of the Chowk.Nasal Chowk was constructed in the Malla period, but many of the building around the square are constructed in Shah dynasty(Rana period). The Chowk has historical importance considering it was the place where King Gyanendra was crowned in 2001.
Beyond the door is the large Narsingha Statue , Vishnu in his man-lion incarnation, in the act of disembowelling a demon. The stone image was erected by Pratap Malla in 1673 and the inscription on the pedestal explains that he placed it here for fear that he had offended Vishnu by dancing in a Narsingha costume. The Kabindrapur Temple in Durbar Sq was built for the same reason.
Next is the Sisha Baithak, or Audience Chamber , of the Malla kings. The open verandah houses the Malla throne and contains portraits of the Shah kings.
Panch Mukhi Hanuman Temple
At the northeastern corner of Nasal Chowk stands the damaged Panch Mukhi Hanuman Temple.This venerable temple dedicated to Hanuman.It has five circular roofs. Each of the valley towns has a five-storey temple, although it is the great Nyatapola Temple of Bhaktapur that is by far the best known. Hanuman is worshipped in the temple in Kathmandu, but only the priests may enter. Source=
Hanumandhoka Durbar Square--Nepal-- heart of the Kathmandu city
Human Dhoka is a complex of structure with the Royal Palace of the Malla Kings and Shah dynasty. The royal family lived in this palace till 1886, where after they shifted to Narayanhiti Palace.It was expanded by King Pratap Malla in the 17th centuary.The Hanuman Dhoka(Hanuman Dhoka Durbar in Nepali) gets its name from the stone of Hindu monkey god, Hanuman, and it is near the entryway. The statue dates from 1672; the god’s face has long disappeared under a coating of orange vermillion paste applied by generations of devotees. ‘Dhoka’ means door in Nepali.The stone inscription outside is in fifteen languages.
The Hanuman Dhoka originally housed 35 courtyards, but the 1934 earthquake reduced the palace to today’s 10 chowks (courtyards).
Sadly, the palace was hit hard by the 2015 earthquake and damage was extensive. At this time, the palace was closed for reconstruction, but it will be open again when this work is complete.
