Historical sites destroyed by the Himalayan earthquake in Nepal – Before and after

3.Kathmandu royal palace : Hanuman Dhoka

Kathmanduroyal palace :Hanuman Dhoka
Located east of Darbar Square, this former royal palace was the site of the coronation of King Birendra in 1975. The building has ten courtyards. It seems to have been preserved by the earthquake, but UNESCO reminds the “Figaro” that these monuments “were the social heart, religious and urban planning of the city.”
The immense cultural heritage of Nepal must be the greatest thing to recover from the earthquake

 

4.Krishna Mandir Temple

In Patan, a city of 200,000 inhabitants known to be the oldest Buddhist city in Asia, the damage was also important. The city is located only six kilometers south of Kathmandu. If the Krishna Mandir, a Hindu temple, seems to have been preserved, still there is a lot of debris in the streets of the town, probably ornaments of buildings that collapsed.
