Lalitpur (Patan), a rich Royal city
The Hari Shankar Temple, dedicated to Hari Shankar, a half Vishnu, half Shiva deity on Patan Durbar Square. It completely collapsed after the 2015 earthquake, but is fully restored; the restoration teams were able to recover and reuse a variety of carved wooden elements that survived the quake which were then painstakingly cleaned and reassembled.
