Taleju


Reading Sophia Pande's 'Danger Zone' (#155) reminded me of my own pet peeve the Taleju Temple at Hanuman Dhoka. An ugly guardhouse was added to one of the corner structures during the Rana period that totally ruins the architectural harmony of the temple.

The guardhouse was added to safeguard the treasures inside the temple. Today it serves no purpose, why not remove this eyesore?

This would be the simplest of restorations and would bring peace to the tormented souls of the Taleju's ancient builders.

Dinesh Rai,
