The Durbar Square, with its old temples and places, epitomizes the religious and cultural life of the people. It is the historic seat of royalty. It is here that Kings of Nepal were crowned and their coronations solemnized. Interesting things to see here are; Taleju Temple built by King Mahendra Malla in 1549 A.D., Kal Bhairav, the statue of King Pratap Malla, the Big Bell, Big Drum etc. On the right-hand corner, large wooden lattice screen hides an enormous gilded face of Swet Bhairav. The screen is removed only during the Indra Jatra festival. The temple or the residence of Living goddess, Kumari, is situated in the vicinity of Hanumandhoka Palace. The building has profusely carved wooden balconies and window screens. The Kumari-the living Goddess, acknowledges the greetings from her balcony window. This is the one of the UNESCO cultural heritage sites of Nepal.
