Daily Life In Bhaktapur
The 55-Window Palace, also known as Pachpanna Jhyale Durbar, is seen along with Bhaktapur Durbar Square on a Sunday evening on April 26, 2026, as part of the government-declared weekly holiday introduced for fuel-saving measures. The 17th-century palace, built during the Malla period, is noted for its intricately carved wooden windows and traditional Newar craftsmanship. Located within Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the palace stands as a key architectural landmark, reflecting the historical grandeur and artistic heritage of the ancient city.
