*Tikathali**
Ward No. 5 of Mahalaxmi Municipality is the northern part of the former Tikathali VDC, a key area known by this name post the 2015 merger that formed the municipality from Tikathali, Imadol, Lubhu, Siddhipur, and Lamatar.[2][4][7] Other neighborhoods or toles within this ward are not explicitly detailed in available sources, but it falls within the broader Tikathali region in northeastern Lalitpur district.[4]
This ward is characterized by its rural-urban transition adjacent to the Patan-Kathmandu conurbation, with residential and agricultural features typical of former VDC areas now integrated into municipal governance.[4][7] Notable landmarks include local temples referenced in the municipality’s temple listings, though specifics for Ward 5 are limited; it contributes to Mahalaxmi’s cultural heritage tied to sites like the Mahalaxmi Temple in nearby Ward 8 (Lubhu).[3] The area supports growing population density, with the municipality’s total nearing 100,000 by recent estimates.[7]
