In Nepal, Durbar Square refers to the squares and locations across from the former royal temples. These squares are significant historical and cultural landmarks, filled with temples, idols, open courts, and water fountains. The name "Durbar" originates from the Persian word for court. There are three famous Durbar Square in the Kathmandu Valley: Kathmandu Durbar Square, Patan Durbar Square, and Bhaktapur Durbar Square. All three are UNESCO World Heritage Sites, representing the remnants of the independent kingdoms that existed before Nepal's unification. Despite suffering damage in the 2015 earthquake, many structures in these squares have been preserved or reconstructed, maintaining their historical and cultural importance.
