It lies at the relatively low elevation of 1,550m/5,085, making it warmer than Nagarkot. The oldest area of the town, the southern part, is an assembly of fine old Newari houses, often occupied by 20 or more members of Newarifamilies. They may not all have hot water or modern furniture, but they have their culture and a welcoming atmosphere. Their most valuable assets are the beautifully carved windows and doors, fine examples of traditional Newari craftsmanship
