India history and geography
Natva-bahal (in Sanskrit: Kanakadatta) refers to one of the various Bahals (“monasteries” = Vihāras) found in Patan, situated in the Nepal Mandala (lit. “circle or country of Nepal”), the ancient name for the Kathmandu Valley. A Bahal is a type of ‘enclosed courtyard’ or ‘sacred monastery’ constructed according to traditional Newari Architecture and hence found primarily in Nepal amongst Newar communities. These buildings play a big role in maintaining the norms of their society and lifestyle. There is a common list of eighteen major such Temples (bahals) found in Patan. For example Natva-bahal, which is also known by its Sanskrit name Kanakadatta-vihāra.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
