A HISTORICAL PLACE

We most be familiar with the history of our country. One of the cest ways of learning history is to visit historical places. There are many historical places in our country. They are found in the Valley of Kathmandu and outside. I have visited few historical places outside the valley. I have visited many such places in the valley.
One of the famous historical places in the Valley of Kathmandu is Bhaktapur. It is a very old town. It was founded by king Ananda Dev in 1203 V.S. It was once a flourishing town. It was the capital of the Malla Kings. We travelled from Kathmandu by bus. It takes half an hour to reach there. There is a fine motorable road . The bus stopped near siddha pokhari. It is a big pond, but properly maintained.

We went to the Durbar Square and visited the National Art Gallery. The Gallery contains many historical pictures of the Malla Kings. It has a great educational value for students. It is a small gallery but well-maintained.
