Nepal's world heritage listed site Changu Narayan was badly damaged after the 2015 earthquake. More than a year later, the site is still awaiting full scale reconstruction work to begin.

The seven include the Durbar Squares of Hanuman Dhoka (Kathmandu), Patan and Bhaktapur, the Buddhist stupas of Swayambhu and Bauddhanath and the Hindu temples of Pashupati and Changu Narayan.
