帕坦，即拉利特普尔市，是尼泊尔最大的城市之一，位于巴格马蒂河对岸，紧邻加德满都。令人困惑的是，它也被称为拉利特普尔，这两个名字都源自梵语的“Lalitapattan”。与它较大的邻居一样，帕坦也拥有一个杜巴广场，广场上遍布寺庙、雕像和宫殿，此外，还有一个必看的景点——帕坦博物馆。作为传统的手工艺中心，帕坦是购买珠宝、佛像和面具的好地方。

抵达

• 微型巴士 从加德满都的Ratnapark出发（15卢比，持尼泊尔身份证的学生/志愿者10卢比）。
• 出租车 是更昂贵的选择，200-350卢比（约3-5美元）。
• 巴士。在加德满都的环城公路上（绕加德满都谷地一圈）乘坐蓝色或绿色的巴士，票价为15至20卢比。告诉售票员/乘务员你要去帕坦。到站时他会通知你。从环城公路到帕坦杜巴广场只需步行15分钟。
• 步行。从塔梅尔步行到帕坦相对容易，大约需要90分钟，沿途有很多值得一看的东西。有几座桥梁连接加德满都和帕坦，所以一张好的城市地图会很有帮助。

注意：尼泊尔的巴士和微型巴士不太适合残疾人士或胆小的人。那里的人非常友好，但车辆非常老旧且颠簸。

四处逛逛

• 游览城市及其景点最好步行。
• 出租车、小巴和三轮车随处可见。
• 1 巴格马蒂桥 (帕坦东北部). 一座连接帕坦与加德满都的双车道巴格马蒂河桥

杜巴广场

帕坦杜巴广场地图

杜巴广场是帕坦的宫殿广场。从南侧接近广场，宫殿在你的右侧，一排寺庙在你的左侧。游客入场费为1000卢比（2023年3月）。你应该在杜巴广场南端的售票处或更北边的一个入口处支付。这也是博物馆的门票（无额外费用）。如果你的入场券不显眼，广场工作人员可能会与你接触。如果你计划多次游览并且将在尼泊尔停留一段时间，请让售票员在你的入场券上盖章以延长有效期。你可能需要出示护照和入境签证。

• 1 宫殿 (广场东侧). 建于1734年要塞旧址之上，曾是当时帕坦邦玛拉王朝统治者的居所。它被分割成一系列庭院（或称为“Chowks”）。不幸的是，由于文物盗窃问题，只有右侧最后一个庭院，也就是博物馆所在地，定期开放。可以尝试透过门缝窥视一下你错过了什么。第一个宫殿建筑是建于1647年的Sundari Chowk。宫殿一侧的三层建筑是Degutale寺，建于1661年，此前的一座已烧毁。Mul Chowk是旧宫殿的中心部分，近年来遭受了大量装饰性木雕的盗窃。  
• 2 帕坦博物馆, Keshab Narayan Chowk. 10:30 至 17:30. 一个出色且布置精美的博物馆，介绍了各种艺术技巧。 1000卢比（包含在杜巴广场入场费内）. (更新于2023年3月)

广场左侧有一系列令人眼花缭乱的寺庙和其他有趣的建筑。同样，从广场南端走，你会经过

• 3 塔莱珠寺.  
• 4 八角石克里希纳神庙 (Chyasaldewal). 建于1647年  
• 5 塔莱珠钟. 一口巨大的钟，可追溯到1737年，每年敲响一次。  
• Shankar Narayan temple. 前面有跪着的石象 
• 6 Bhai Dega寺 (Biseshvar Temple) (在Cafe de Patan之前). 湿婆神庙  
• 7 Hari Shankar寺. 毗湿奴和湿婆的合一神。建于1704-1705年  
• 8 Jagan Narayan寺 (Charnarayan Temple) (Hari Shankar寺以北). 两层。砖砌。该建筑群中最古老的寺庙，可追溯至1565年。寺庙前有一根柱子，上面站着Yognarendra的雕像。（向南）  

• 两座较小的毗湿奴神庙，分别建于1590年和1652年。
• 一座供奉克里希纳的石制神庙，被认为是杰作，拥有令人惊叹的石雕。请注意前面柱子上的迦楼罗，它有一双水晶眼。

• 9 克里希纳曼迪尔 (Vishwanath寺以南).  
• 10 Vishwanath寺. 前面有两尊骑着石象  

石制的克里希纳神庙和右侧的迦楼罗。

• 11 Bhimsen寺 (杜巴广场西侧最北的寺庙). 建于1680年，但近期增加了大理石装饰。  
• 12 Degutalle寺 (杜巴广场东侧). 宫殿地基上的五层建筑  
• 13 Mani Mandap (Manga Hiti旁边). 一个建于18世纪的亭子。  
• 14 Manga Hiti (Mani Mandap后面). 一个莲花状的水池和三个雕刻的鳄鱼头。  
• 15 Ganesh寺 (Mani Ganesh, Kopeswar Temple?) (杜巴广场北端).  

杜巴广场以南

Suraschandra Mahavihar, Patan

Kontihiti Kumbheswar, Patan

• 16 Mahaboudha寺, Okubhal 至 Chakra bhil 街和 Sundhara 街拐角 (从杜巴广场东南方向步行5-10分钟). 这是一座石制寺庙，覆盖着陶瓦，上面刻有1008尊佛陀的图像。它仿制了印度菩提伽耶的一座较大的寺庙，耗费了一个家族四代人的心血  
• 17 Machchhendranath寺 (Rato Temple, Red Temple, Machhindra Bahal temple), Prayag Pokhari Marg附近 (距离杜巴广场以南500米). 这是文物盗窃问题的一个好例子。寺庙现在被坚固的栅栏环绕，每尊雕像都有自己的单独栅栏。两座支架上的雕像已失踪，表明该寺庙已成为受害者。Machchhendranath还以年度节日而闻名，届时一个25米高的“战车”将在帕坦游行。如果您注意到街道上比25米低很多的电线和电缆，您就能体会到这项工程的复杂性。游行在4月至6月举行，战车会在不同地点过夜。游行的结束应与季风雨的开始相吻合。战车的轮子直径超过2米。一年中的其余时间，这些轮子可以在Ashok Stupa（见下文）旁边的建筑中看到。  
• 18 Minanath寺 (Machchhendranath寺以东100米，Prayag Pokhari公交车站). 这里有一所中学。  
• 19 Rudravarna Mahavihar (Uku Bahal) (Mahaboudha寺以南100米). Mahaboudha附近一座宝石般的寺庙，但游客较少。是加德满都谷地最古老的寺庙之一，有一些奇特而有趣的雕像。  
• 20 南侧佛塔, Lagankhel Rd (距离Lagankhel公交车站300米). (更新于2016年10月)

帕坦黄金寺一景。

• 21 金庙 (Hiranayavarna Makavikar, Kwa Bahal), Kwalakhu Rd (Near to Nag Bahal). An enormous number of gold- and silver-covered decorations and some excellent bronze statues make this well worth being the only temple in Patan you have to pay to enter. Construction dates back to the early 1400s, although some pieces pre-date construction. Admission NPR50.  

Bangalamukhi temple complex

• 22 巴格拉姆希寺 (Banglamukhi Temple, Kumbeswar Temple, Kumbheshwore Temple), Kwalakhu Rd. Shiva Temple. One of the two five-story pagoda temples of the Valley.
