Hanuman Dhoka Palace, Kathmandu, Nepal Phone: Not AvailableAbout
The part of the palace west of Nasal Chowk, overlooking the main Durbar Sq area, was constructed by the Ranas in the middle to late part of the 19th century. Ironically, it is now home to a museum that celebrates King Tribhuvan (ruled 1911-55) and his successful revolt against their regime, along with memorials to Kings Mahendra (1955-72) and Birendra (1972-2001). The museum also houses the nine-storey Basantapur Tower which provides extraordinary views over the palace and the city
