Amidst the rich tapestry of Nepal's history, the Malla kings of Bhaktapur stand out as formidable rulers. King Jaya Prakash Malla, depicted in a regal portrait, and his warrior predecessor, King Bhupatindra Malla, are testament to their power and prowess. The incunabula of the Remut Sinner, a rare find from Barcelona in 1495, holds stories of far-off lands and ancient wisdom. The Malla kings were known for their patronage of art and culture, as evidenced by the intricate carvings on the Rankoth Vehera Stupa in Sri Lanka. In the present day, the Malla Strict Nature Reserve and Lake Kilpisjarvi in Finland offer a peaceful retreat, where one can connect with nature and reflect on the past. As we journey through time, the legacy of the Malla kings continues to inspire, from the rock and wooden steps leading to the summit of a fell, to the statues of kings that stand proudly in Patan.
