Kasthamandap, meaning wooden pavilion, is the biggest of all the "Patis" (a place for visitors to rest) in Kathmandu. It is commonly believed that the massive wooden structure was built out of the timber from a single tree. The exact date of its construction and the name of the person who built it is not known so far. However, its name has been found mentioned in the oldest ever inscription of 1134 AD.
