English: Bhankha Hiti or Dhungedhara (Water Spout) inside the Patan Durbar located in Mangalbazar of Lalitpur district. Inside the main square of the historic Patan Durbar and Sundari Chowk, on the bank of the Bhandarkhal Tank, there is a very artistic Bhankha Hiti or stone stream. As Lalitpur has been home to renowned artists and craftsmen since the Middle Ages, the city is full of craftsmanship. Patan Bazaar is famous for its woodwork, stone art, metal art, cast iron and brass utensils. The town has many monasteries, temples, Water Spouts and Buddhist monasteries.
It is located on the left side of Bhandarkhal Tank Pond or Kamal Pond in the back garden of the artistic Bhankhahiti or Dhungedhara (Water Spout) Patan Durbar. Bhandarkhal Pani Tanki Pokhari was built in 1647 as the main water storage facility for Durbar during the reign of Mallakalin king Siddhinar Singh Malla. The architecture of the Bhandarkhal tank includes a stone fountain, meditation pavilion, a terrace, two stone lions, a piece of carved stone and relief carvings from the 17th century. Tanyaki is connected to the historical water infrastructure of Patan. Groundwater flows from nearby sources through terracotta channels. The tank had dried up and remained in ruins until extensive restoration in 2012. At the edge of the tank is the artistic Bhankha Hitti or (Water Spout). There is a stream of artistic stone and the place where water flows is also made of artistic stone. To the right and left of the stone fountain are statues of various deities, and to the left are two inscriptions. There is also a statue of two guards in front of the Water Spout. Due to all these, this Water Spout looks very artistic. There is also a statue of Jaldevi on top of the stone fountain. This Bhankha Hiti was built during the reign of King Siddhinar Singh Malla. The renovation work was done during the reign of King Mahendra Shah. The stones used in this hiti (Water Spout) are of a different style from other hiti. The color of this stone is light yellow. The water from Bhankha Hiti used to fall on the round stone of artistic style below the stream. Falling water i.e. stone water flows to Bhandarkhal tank i.e. lotus pond. This stone fountain is made in a very artistic style. |
