Patko is an ancient site situated close to Patan Durbar Square. This site or Tole is noted for having a legendary mound called Patkodon which still stands
distinct with a giant peepal tree atop indicating something mysterious hidden underground.
According to some scholars there may be some significant ruins of the Kirati Kings’ palace or stupa structures buried under the tree from the early Kirati
period dating back to 250-300 B.C.
