Patan Museum

It is located inside the Patan Durbar Square and is considered as one of the finest museums in Asia. The Patan Museum exhibits traditional sacred art of Nepal in an illustrious architectural setting. The building is an old residential court of Patan Darbar, one of the royal palaces of the former Malla kings of the Kathmandu Valley. It’s gilded door and window faces are one of the most beautiful squares in the world.

The museum’s shows cover a long span of Nepal’s cultural history and some rare objects are among its treasures. Most of the objects are cast bronzes and gilt copper repousse work, traditional crafts for which Patan is famous for. Opens daily from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm. It is closed only for 3 days during the Dashain and for 3 days during the Tihar.

The Patan Museum has four sections on different ancient houses that display the ancient art and crafts:
