 Bhairavnath Temple, Bhaktapur by into-thin-air
It is a World Heritage sight and now costs $10 per person to visit.
Well worth a visit for the architecture alone as Bhaktapur has more temples per square foot than Patan or Kathmandu and is far enough out of town to keep the crowds away. As a World Heritage site listed by the UNESCO, Bhaktapur has been heavily restored since a 1934 earthquake severely damaged the city.
You can catch a taxi or local bus from Kathmandu. Leave a Comment

 Nyatapola Temple - Baktapur by pink63
Baktapur, like Bagdaon, means "the city of devotees". It was built in IX century by king Ananda Malla. After, it became one of the three capitals of Kathmandu valley, togheter with Kathmandu and Patan.
Baktapur Durbar Square is one of the seven world heritage sites all over the Kathmandu valley. Leave a Comment

Bhaktapur - or the "City of Devotees" - is one of the three Kingdom Cities, next to Patan and Kathmandu. It is certainly one of the main highlights of the kathmandu Valley you cant afford to miss. Stroll around the alleys and squares full of magnificent monuments and temples with rich woodcarving decorations and inhale the history! The complete town is ONE big museum! Leave a Comment

It is just 12 kilometers east of Kathmandu, but gives the feeling of being in a different time - traditional homes, lifestyles and environment all seem from a different era.
Bhaktapur is an ancient city and is renowned for its elegant art, culture, colourful festivals and indigenous lifestyle of Newari community. Bhaktapur is also knows as “City of Culture”.
Bhaktapur has more temples per square foot than Patan or Kathmandu. Although we were initially pestered by a few young guys who were very persistent to act as our guide, it is less crowded and busy than Kathmandu. It is especially the amazing Durbar Square which you have to see! It is an UNESCO World Heritage site.
Bhaktapur has been very well restored since a 1934 earthquake severely damaged the city. To further restoration and preservation there is an entrance fee of Rs 750 for visitors (Dec 2008).
The best way of exploring Bhaktapur is by foot. There are no rickshaws or taxis allowed inside the city, which makes the air less polluted and creates a relaxed and quiet atmosphere. Directions: We took a trip around the Kathmandu Valley with a car and driver. Bhaktapur was one of the stops.
