Krishna Mandir is a major land mark of Patan Durbar square, almost all of the material are stone and well carved and paved. During Krishna Astami mass Hindu devotee come to this temple to worship Lord Kirshna and his wife Radha. If you happen to go Nepal please do not miss this temple visit, see and know closely it.
