National Museum is the first museum that lies on the bottom level of Swayambhu, a holy hill of Kathmandu Valley. It occupies about 50 Ropani of land with different types of buildings, gardens, and opens space in its compound. Now it provides the service to collect and display rare and precious art heritages. The history of this museum shows that at the beginning it was an Arsenal house, built by Prime Minister General Bhimsen Thapa in 1824. After it, in 1926 Rana Prime Minister Chandra Shumsher added two wings in the north and south of the main building and it was given the name of Silkhana Museum. Later in 1938 Rana Prime Minister Juddha Shumsher changed its name to Nepal Museum and its doors were opened to the public on 12th February 1939 (Amatya,1999:45).

  • El Museo nacional de Nepal (en nepalí: राष्ट्रिय संग्रहालय) es una atracción popular en la capital del país asiático de Nepal, Katmandú.​​ Tiene cerca de un siglo de existencia, y se destaca tanto como destino turístico como símbolo histórico para esa nación. Al ser el museo más grande del país desempeña un papel importante a nivel local en trabajos arqueológicos así como en el desarrollo de los museos. En Katmandú, el monumento sirve para revivir las batallas libradas en los campos de Nepal. (es)
