Architecture in Nepal

Accounts of the architecture of Nopal as also of her art have hitherto formed sections of general travelogues or isolated chapters in volumes devoted largely to Indian art and architecture. Among the writers of the latter are many scholars who have never visited this secluded and little known country and, therefore, have remained unaware of the possibilities of the subject being treated in its own importance. The present volume is thus the first attempt at studying the architecture or Nepal comprehensively.
