Lalitpur Metropolitan City, historically Patan, is the third-largest city of Nepal after Kathmandu and Pokhara and it is located in the south-central part of Kathmandu Valley which is a new metropolitan city of Nepal.

It is also known as Manigal. It is best known for its rich cultural heritage, particularly its tradition of arts and crafts. It is called the city of festival and feast, fine ancient art, making of metallic and stone carving statue. At the time of the 2011 Nepal census, it had a population of 226,728 in 54,748 individual households. The city received extensive damage from an earthquake on 25 April 2015.

It is on the elevated tract of land in Kathmandu Valley on the south side of the Bagmati River, which separates it from the city of Kathmandu on the northern and western side. The Nakkhu Khola acts as the boundary on the southern side. It was developed on relatively thin layers of deposited clay and gravel in the central part of a dried ancient lake known as the Nagdaha.

Climate is characterized by relatively high temperatures and evenly distributed precipitation throughout the year. The Köppen Climate Classification subtype for this climate is “Cfa” (Humid Subtropical Climate).

The city was initially designed in the shape of the Buddhist Dharma-Chakra (Wheel of Righteousness). The four Thurs or mounds on the perimeter of Patan have ascribed around, one at each corner of its cardinal points, which are popularly known as Asoka Stupas. Legend has it that Emperor Asoka (the legendary King of India) visited with his daughter Charumati to Kathmandu in 250 BC and erected five Asoka Stupas, four in the surrounding and one at the middle of the Patan. The size and shape of these stupas seem to breathe their antiquity in a real sense. There are more than 1,200 Buddhist monuments of various shapes and sizes scattered in and around the city.

Walking is the easiest method of transportation within the city as the core is densely populated. In terms of motor transport, Kathmandu Ring Road which encircles the central part of the valley is a strategic road in the city. Connection to Kathmandu over the Bagmati River is provided by a host of road and pedestrian bridges. The most trafficked and important bridge connecting to the centre of Kathmandu is Thapathali Bridge. Since pedestrians and vehicles often have to share the same road, traffic congestion is a major problem in Patan. Efforts are being made to widen roads to make them more suitable for vehicular traffic.

  66. I run a vape shop directory and we have had a listing from a vape store in the United States that also offers CBD items. A Calendar month later, PayPal has written to use to say that our account has been limited and have asked us to take out PayPal as a payment solution from our vape shop directory site. We do not offer CBD items such as CBD oil. We solely provide advertising and marketing professional services to CBD companies. I have looked into Holland & Barrett– the UK’s Major Health and wellness Store and if you take a good look, you will witness that they offer for sale a surprisingly comprehensive stable of CBD products, specifically CBD oil and they also happen to accept PayPal as a settlement method. It appears that PayPal is employing twos sets of rules to many different firms. Because of this stipulation, I can no longer accept PayPal on my CBD-related internet site. This has constricted my payment possibilities and presently, I am intensely dependent on Cryptocurrency payments and straightforward bank transfers. I have consulted with a barrister from a Magic Circle law practice in The city of london and they said that what PayPal is doing is absolutely unlawful and discriminatory as it ought to be applying an uniform standard to all companies. I am still to check with a different legal representative from a US law office in The city of london to see what PayPal’s legal position is in the United States. Meanwhile, I would be highly appreciative if anyone here at targetdomain could provide me with different payment processors/merchants that work with CBD companies.

  70. It is really a great and helpful piece of information. I’m glad that you shared this useful info with us. Please keep us informed like this. Thanks for sharing.
