KATHMANDU:  Photo taken on July 15, 2022 shows the interior view of the quake-hit Nine-Storeyed Basantapur Palace complex after the restoration in Kathmandu, Nepal. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the restoration project for the quake-hit Nine-Storeyed Basantapur Palace complex in Nepal has been completed with Chinese aid after hard work for nearly five years.

The complex, which lies at the heart of the Kathmandu Durbar Square, a world cultural heritage site in the Nepali capital, was badly damaged in the 2015 massive earthquakes.
