    We did not visit the palace but walked around. The wood carvings are exquisite and could get one to create a photobook on its own!

    Beautiful ancient and historic place. Bhakatapur is rich in art, culture, monuments, foods etc. We can visit with friends and family and enjoy. The place is clean although it is crowned in holidays.

The below is a list of 29 great one word compliments with a definition and an example of each one, showing how each word can be used.
