*Tinthana**

Specific tole names within Ward 15 are not detailed in available records, but Chandragiri Municipality overall reports 290 toles across its 15 wards, with Tinthana historically divided into sub-areas from its prior VDC structure (wards 1-9).[3][8]
Tinthana lies in the southwestern fringe of Kathmandu Valley along the Prithvi Highway, serving as a gateway to Kathmandu with rivers like Balkhu and Daudali Khola passing nearby (covering Chandragiri wards 1,2,3,12,14,15).[3] It features rural-to-urban transitional characteristics typical of Chandragiri’s landscape, near historically significant Chandragiri Hills where King Prithvi Narayan Shah viewed the valley, though no specific landmarks are uniquely tied to this ward.[3][4] The area supports mixed residential-agricultural use in the municipality’s 43.92 sq km expanse.[3]
