*Manikhel**
Ward No. 2 of Mahankal Municipality is primarily known as Manikhel, the main neighborhood and former Village Development Committee (VDC) encompassing this administrative boundary.[1] Other toles or sub-areas within the ward are not explicitly detailed in available sources, but it aligns with the broader Manikhel area.[1]
Manikhel is a rural village area in Mahankal Municipality, Lalitpur District, within Kathmandu Valley, characterized by its transition from a former VDC to a municipal ward.[1] It features typical peri-urban characteristics with residential settlements and local streets, lacking major urban landmarks like those in central Kathmandu (e.g., no mentions of temples or markets specific to this ward).[1] The area is part of Lalitpur’s rural municipalities, distinct from Kathmandu District’s Mahankal (now in Budanilkantha).[5][6]
