Patan, a long ago kingdom

Indian Emperor Ashok built these monuments 2,250 years ago when he came to the Kathmandu valley. We now pay a fee to enter the area which is packed with eateries and shops and 1200 Buddhist monuments and few cars, thankfully. Patan is known for its fine arts. It used to be a separate town from Kathmandu but now it's all one.
