Tauthali (Nepali: तौथली) is a village in Sindhupalchok District in Bagmati Pradesh, central Nepal. Tauthali is 110 km away from Kathmandu.

As of 2011 census, the population was 2,762 (1,507 females and 1,255 males) in 776 households.[1]

In the devastating earthquake of 2015, almost every house was destroyed including religious sites such as the temple of Tripura Sundari Mai. Within three years of the disaster, almost all houses had been rebuilt, completely transforming the village compared to before the earthquake.
