Lalitpur District extends beyond the city of Patan. Its six local governments comprise one metropolitan city, two municipalities and three rural municipalities, as listed by the District Coordination Committee.

The urban local governments are Lalitpur Metropolitan City, Godawari and Mahalaxmi. The three rural municipalities are Bagmati, Konjyosom and Mahankal.
