Mahabouddha
This temple is best known for its superior quality bricked structure. Also, Mahabouddha is the temple which boasts of a long array of thousands of images of Lord Buddha which are engraved in the temple structure. All these artworks are simply excellent to observe. Tourists do appreciate a lot as they visit this travel destination in Patan. Mahabouddha in Patan is a site where you will find a terracotta structure that belonged to the 14th Century. These terracotta structures display Nepalese architectural masterpieces. If you see this image at full size you will see that every brick has the sculpture of buddha.

All the Buddhas one one side of the temple are in the same pose and there are four different poses of buddha on all the four sides. The temple is hidden in a small cramp courtyard, barely visible from the street, it was erected in the 16th century
