Trip Overview

Explore the historical charm and cultural significance of Gorkha Durbar, nestled in the scenic Gandaki Province of Nepal. Perched atop a hill overlooking the town of Gorkha, this ancient palace complex holds a special place in Nepal's history as the birthplace of Prithvi Narayan Shah, the founder of modern Nepal.

Gorkha Durbar is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of Nepal, with its impressive pagoda-style temples, intricately carved wooden windows, and stone sculptures that showcase the craftsmanship of the Newar artisans. The palace complex consists of several courtyards, temples, and buildings, including the main palace where Prithvi Narayan Shah was born. Visitors can explore the palace museum, which houses artifacts, weapons, and historical relics that offer insights into the Shah dynasty and Nepal's unification process.

Aside from its historical importance, Gorkha Durbar offers breathtaking views of the surrounding hills, the Trishuli River valley, and the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas on clear days. The climb to the palace through narrow alleyways and stone steps adds to the adventure, while the serene atmosphere and cultural richness of Gorkha captivate visitors seeking a blend of history, spirituality, and natural beauty in Gandaki Province.
