Hiking
In front of Mul Chowk, on the other side of the street, on a brick base is a stand with a huge bell dedicated to the goddess Taleju. It was erected by King Vishnu Malla in 1737, the same year as the corresponding bell in Bhaktapur.
It was rung during worship at the temples and could also be used to sound an alarm. Some accounts assert that petitioners could ring it to alert the king to their grievances.
