Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Located next to Krishna Mandir is a large cast bronze bell over 200 years old which was rung by all rulers of Patan for religious and warning purposes. It stands on a very high base into which shops have been built; the bell is itself being supported by a heavy post and lintel stone framework which has been painted with religious symbols. The bell is covered by a small brightly gilded roof which harmonizes well with the roofs of the Nepalese style temples around it. A golden pinnacle stands atop this small protective roof. The bell was erected in 1737 by Visnu malla and his wife Chandra Laksmi.
