The name of my town is Kathmandu, the largest city of Nepal. It is the capital city of our country. It is in Kathmandu district of the central development region. It is surrounded by four hills. They are- Shivpuri in the east, Chandragiri in the west, Nagarjun in the North and Phulchoki in the south. Kathmandu was founded in 723and was ruled for centuries by many kings of different dynasties. It was caprued in 1768by the Shah sybnasty and became their capital. From 1846to 1951 the powerful Rana family ruled Nepal from here as hereditary prime ministers. The city was badly damaged in 1934 by an earthquake. Population, according to census, 2001is 1,o93,414.Because of being the capital city, various types of people live here. In spite of living innumerable people of various casses and castes the majority is of Newa community.
