Through the centuries Kathmandu has had various names. The name Kathmandu is derived from Kastha Mandap, a twelfth-century rest house in the historic city core. Kastha Mandap means "pavilion of wood", and it is said to have been built from the timber of a single tree. Kathmandu is called Yen in the local language.Kathmandu has a refined and ancient culture inspired by the convergence of the people's Hindu and Buddhist devotion. The customs, festivals, art and architecture are deeply religious in character. Kathmandu's location on a key Asian trade route has exposed it to varied influences, and they have further enriched local artistic traditions. The high level of craftsmanship can be seen in the exquisite artworks that ornament the ancient temples, palace buildings and domestic houses.Kathmandu possesses one of the greatest concentrations of architectural treasures in the world, and they are all still part of the living culture. They provide places of worship and are the setting for a roster of annual festivals. Four such temple complexes within metropolitan Kathmandu have been listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. They are the Hanuman Dhoka Durbar Square (the seat of ancient royalty), Swayambhu (the Buddhist stupa located atop a hillock which is linked to the founding of the Kathmandu valley), Pashupatinath (one of the holiest Hindu temples in the world) and the Bouddha stupa (the largest of its kind).Kathmandu has been a densely inhabited urban center from historical times. The indigenous people are the Newars. Over the centuries various peoples have come to settle here, and the present population is a cosmopolitan lot. Many languages are spoken here, principal among them are Nepali and Newari. The national census of 2001 counted 671,846 persons and 152,155 households in the metropolis. The density of population is 13,586 persons per sq. km.Metropolitan Kathmandu is spread over an area of 50.76 sq. km. as computed from digital data collected by the Kathmandu Valley Mapping Programme during recent field surveys.
