Ranipokhari, Kathmandu
Rani Pokhari (queen's pond), is an historic artificial pond located in the heart of Kathmandu. It was built in 1670 AD by King Pratap Malla, one of the most illustrious monarchs of the Malla dynasty that ruled Nepal for more than 600 years. Pratap Malla had the tank constructed to console his queen who was distraught with grief after their son was trampled to death by an elephant.
