Urban Design and Conservation is concerned with the building of a civilized city in continuity with its past heritage. It is also concerned with public and the community services like safe streets for people, squares for community to gather and place for children or elderly to play rest and get together. Traditional cities of Kathmandu Valley and other countries are a testimony of harmonious townscape with enough community and urban spaces in the form of streets, squares, ponds and temple complexes. The places were also theatres where all kinds of cultural activities sometimes in the form of drama and festival were played.
