Conclusion/Suggestion :
For the betterment of Patan , my suggestions are as follows:
1) Among the three famous areas of the valley, Patan is said to have suffered more than its sister towns due to the political problems.
2) After the unification of the valley, Kathmandu was set up as the capital city sidelining the cities Bhaktapur and Patan.
3) During Malla period , Patan was decorated with monasteries , temples , bihars, etc.
4) The tradition system of “Guthi” was introduces to enhace the maintaining of the temples and monasteries, observing the rituals and festivals and sponsoring the feasts.
5) Most of the notable architects are endangered by today’s habitats surrounding.
6) Participation of the locals along with the governments to preserve this enchanting city with its rich culture and art and architectures is must.
7) The craftsmen should be provided with the good markets to distribute their handicrafts arts.
