Nyatapola Temple steps

The steps, flanked by sculptures, going up to the Nyatapola Temple on Taumadhi Square, Bhaktapur and dedicated to the goddess Siddhi Lakshmi. On the first level is a pair of likenesses of Bhaktapur’s strongest man, Jaya mal Pata, a famous wrestler. Next, two elephants followed by two lions, two griffons and finally “Baghini” and “Singhini”, the tiger and lion goddesses. It was constructed in 1702.
