Lonely Planet review for Degutalle Temple

The five-storey Degutalle Temple , topped by its octagonal triple-roofed tower, is on the northeastern corner of Durbar Sq. The larger, square, triple-roofed Taleju Temple is directly north, looking out over Durbar Sq. It was built by Siddhinarsingh Malla in 1640, rebuilt after a fire and rebuilt after the 1934 earthquake, which completely demolished it. The goddess Taleju was the personal deity of the Malla kings from the 14th century, and Tantric rites were performed to her in this temple.
