Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Another Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva. Built in 1627.
It survived the earthquake in 1988, during which its original roof was destroyed. Then it was renovated quite quickly. However, the last earthquake in 2015 treated it very gently and did not suffer any serious damage. It is very famous for its characteristic roof supports covered with erotic sculptures. For me, as an elephant lover, the most important are two large elephant figures placed in front of the temple. I was here again and this time
I also couldn't resist taking a few photos with such an impressive pair of elephants.

You will find this one south of the Bhimson Temple which is an elaborate two tiered pagoda with interesting wood cravings and on one side two elephants at the door cruhsing a man with their foot and on the other side a bull. It was built so they say in 1627.

Wonderful architecture, enriched with wonderful works of art. Everywhere you look you can experience beautiful works. The monuments in the Durbar Square date back to the medieval Malla period from 16th to 18th century. Also Vishwanath Mandir Temple. The temple is built in Pagoda style and the temple is guarded by two stone elephants. Located near the Bhimsen Temple.

As of the end of April 2019, this temple was still behind bars, being restored.
You can still see the statue of the elephant trampling on a human, though!

Unfortunately the temple is in a heavy stage of rebuilding with a lot of scaffolding.
However, the elephants are still very visible and you can imagine how amazing this place must have been previously.
It will be interesting to return in the future and see the progress.

Another temple in a line of temple that are all under restoration due to the damages caused by the earthquake of 2015. The elephant sculptures at the entrance that can be viewed closely even from outside the fenced off perimeter are beautiful works of art.
Like at other fenced off temples, there is a board outside showing what the temple looked like before the earthquake and the architectural / structural map of what the restoration plan is.

This temple also known as Bishwanath (or on the boards outside of it Visvesvara) is currently going major re-construction. Temple is completely covered in scaffolding and is closed to visitors. The temple has 2 plinths then 2 roofs. You cannot see that much really but you can see the two big elephants with their riders thru the mesh gate. if you walk away you can get an idea of how it used to look. Rated it as average as you cannot really see it. Once completed I am sure it will be very good!
