Dharahara is located in Kathmandu Nepal
Dharahara (Nepali: धरहरा pronounced [dʱʌɾʌɦʌɾa] or [dʱʌɾʌːɾa]), also called Bhimsen Sthambha(भिमसेन स्तम्भ), is a twenty two-storey, 61.88-metre-tall (203.0 ft)[1] tower at the centre of Sundhara, Kathmandu, Nepal.[2] It was first built in 1832 by Mukhtiyar (equivalent to Prime Minister) Bhimsen Thapa under the commission of Queen Lalit Tripurasundari and was a part of the architecture of Kathmandu recognized by UNESCO.[3] It has been damaged and reconstructed several times. The tower had a spiral staircase containing 213 steps. The eighth floor held a circular balcony for observers that provided a panoramic view of the Kathmandu valley. It also had a 5.2-metre (17 ft) bronze mast on the roof.[2]
Most of the tower collapsed in the 25 April 2015 Nepal earthquake, but the base remains.[4][5]A total of 180 bodies were retrieved from the debris of tower after earthquake.[6] Reconstruction of the tower commenced in October 2018, and it was officially opened on 24 April 2021, one day before the sixth anniversary of the earthquake.[7]
