Next, visit Brahmayani Temple, another important monument constructed in the 17th century to honor Brahmayani, the goddess of the town.
Finally, visit Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a museum of medieval art and architecture with many examples of sculptures, wood carvings and colossal pagoda temples consecrated to different gods and goddesses.
