Research Abstract |
This research is intended to grasp historically the whole aspect of the structures-type of the traditional architecture in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal to chose in advance what kind of structure to preserve. Nepalese architecture usually contains two type of structure-one is courtyard one and the other is multistories tower. This time for the above purpose we aim the court-yard structures. As the results we are able to draw out the following conclusion : Nepalese courtyard structure mainly exists of monasteries and of royal buildings complex. In comparison with the two type of architecure remained the historical records of monasteries like I Baha Bahi in Patan goes back than from that of royal buildings. On the other hand the courtyard of the latter called Chok adopted a structure of highly religious monastery, and Malla Dynasy established a form of complete architecture as the royal building. Then it changed to the present form since the early stage of Shah Dynasty in the late 18th century.
