Sundari Chowk, meaning "beautiful courtyard", is part of the royal palace on Patan Durbar Square in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. It was built in the 1600s by King Siddhinarasimha Malla as a private courtyard of the Malla kings. At its center is the Tusha Hiti, a sunken royal bath lined with finely carved stone images of Hindu deities, and the surrounding wings are known for their intricate woodcarving. Its architecture and traditions continue to influence the region today. Sundari Chowk is part of the Kathmandu Valley World Heritage Site.
