*Bode**
Ward No. 8 of Madhyapur Thimi Municipality is primarily known as Bode, a distinct town and neighborhood within the Kathmandu Valley.[1][2][6] Other areas or toles within this ward include Tigani.[1]
Bode is recognized for its cultural and religious heritage, including the ancient Narayan Temple (also called Vishnughat Temple), which holds historical significance despite its modest architecture.[3] The ward features a ward office and is part of the merged areas forming Madhyapur Thimi, previously encompassing former Wards No. 1 and 2, contributing to the municipality’s Newari traditions.[1][2][6]
