We did not visit the palace but walked around. The wood carvings are exquisite and could get one to create a photobook on its own!

Beautiful ancient and historic place. Bhakatapur is rich in art, culture, monuments, foods etc. We can visit with friends and family and enjoy. The place is clean although it is crowned in holidays.

As the name itself suggests, the palace has 55 windows lying serially. The architecture of the palace showcases the rich Newa architecture of Nepal. The palace is one of the major attractions of Bhaktapur Durbar Square.

The 55 window palace is a dominant building down the left side of Bhaktapur's Durbar Square. It has fifty-five windows, in one of which there is a small pane of glass, presented to him by a man from the plains of India. The Palace of Fifty-Five Windows is one of the most beautiful architectural features of the durbar square.
