The city is praised for its brilliant design; out of this world sanctuaries worked in pagoda style - which is accepted to be the stairway to the paradise, fine earth stoneware, and huge illustrious yards whose presence go back to the twelfth century, where aficionados, still, commend their pre-memorable celebrations by measure up to measure of zeal and energy.
Bhaktapur used to be the decision position of authority of the Kathmandu Valley until the ruler, Yakshya Malla, in 1482, isolated the kingdom between his three children, in the long run blurring the quality of solidarity and losing the country to the Shah line from Gorkha. However, before losing the kingdom to Shah rulers, Bhaktapur was famous for its Malla Yuddha; a furious battle between two wrestlers. Consequently, one can watch strong hungered for wrestlers, as the trademark of the city, into different sanctuaries of as the watchman of the city and of the Gods.

This city has saved the Newari esteem as a mother would protect their kids, so it would be not hard to feel the smell of old Newari culture once you come to the Bhaktapur.
