The Narayanhity Palace Museum or Narayanhity Durbar is a palace in Nepal which long served as a primary residence to that country's monarchs.[1] The palace was constructed under order of the Shah dynasty in the 18th century. On June 1, 2001, it was the site of the Nepalese royal massacre, where King Birendra of Nepal and Queen Aiswarya were allegedly shot to death by Crown Prince Dipendra along with 6 others before Dipendra turned his weapon on himself.
