History/Military Monuments of the Katmandu Valley
Posted on 2010-03-15
|  |
More John Sanday, Monuments of the Katmandu Valley Because of its geographical location, and political and economic roles, the Valley of Katmandu has been subjected in the course of its history to a number of invasions, each of which resulted in the introduction of religious and cultural traditions which affected the architectural heritage of the people. Hindu and Buddhist religions and secular architectural traditions were brought into the valley and, in the course of time, a blend of these two traditions developed, as had also happened in northern India. However, in India the introduction of Islam and the iconoclastic policies of the Muslims led to the destruction of this syncretic style which continues in Nepal. A third source of stimulation came from Tibet in the shape of Tantric Buddhism which has contributed to the decorative aspect of many of our shrines and buildings. The introduction of European-style buildings resulted at first in a discordant note. In some cases, particularly in the poorer sections of the city, cheap imitations of such buildings have affected the appearance of many of our historic quarters.
