Hanumandoka Palace, commonly known as the Old Palace, is the Nepalese Museum of Art, Religion and History. Hanuman Dhoka means "Monkey God Gate", built by King Pratap Malla in 1672, named after a Hanuman (Monkey God Hanuman) statue at the door, which stands under a small umbrella in a red cape. On each side of the palace gate is a colored stone lion, a stone lion sitting on the god Shiva, and on the other stone lion sitting on the goddess Parvati, Shiva's wife. Since the split of the Mala dynasty in the late 15th century, it has been the official palace of the Mala kings of Kathmandu. After Nepal's reunification in 1768, the Hanumandoka Palace became the palace of the Shah dynasty until the palace was relocated in the 1870s.
