Paltan Ghar

Ongoing Project

This project aims to digitally preserve and document Paltan Ghar, a historically significant yet largely overlooked heritage structure nestled between Seto Machhindra Bahal and Ason in Kathmandu. This centuries-old building was originally constructed by military commander Abhiman Singh Basnet to house himself and his troops. Today, it quietly survives with a crumbling facade and active ground-floor shops. Through detailed 3D documentation, this initiative seeks to capture the architectural character, spatial history, and cultural legacy of this building before it is lost to time, enabling deeper public engagement and preservation efforts.
