History
The origin of Nepal thus commenced aeons ago with a tinge of mythology to precede what people call "recorded - real history". Perhaps real history goes back to the time when lord Buddha was born in Lumbini whether 566 or 463 years B.C. Since then historical old temples and monuments of high architectural technique have been created.
Japan's old document "kojiki" (edited, it is believed, in 712 A.D) and "Nihonshoki" (edited in 720 A.D) also refer to the mythology of the birth of the country and the origin of the Emperor's ancestry. It was in 1882, of the Meiji era, that the country's foundation date was legally set as "Jimmu Tennoh" (Emperor) the first ancestral Emperor starting in 660 B.C. However both books also refer to the long tale of mythology of Emperors before "Jummu Tennoh".

The "Horyuuji" temple and "Changunarayan" Temple, for instance.Deva and Heian era observed how Buddhism penetrated into both countries and then adapted to Shinto and Hinduism. "Malla" era existed in the days of Japan's "Kamakura", "Muromachi", "Azuchi-Momoyama" and "Edo" era, so called Samurai period when the capital was placed "Kamakura", Kyoto, and Tokyo (edo). During this period both countries experienced vicissitude of many ruling authorities in different cities, i..e, Bhaktapur, Kathmandu and Patan in Nepal's case where locally each characteristically unique cultures were produced.
Many teachers rejected prevalent religious beliefs and practices because such beliefs advocated social differences, where the lower castes were oppressed by the upper castes. They believed in the power of personal devotion and felt attracted by the idea of a Supreme God, which believed that the only path to salvation was through bhakti or devotion.
