Thakurbari Temple (Nepali: ठाकुरबारी मन्दिर) is a Hindu temple located in Gangtok, Sikkim, India, in the heart of the town. It is one of the oldest Hindu temples in Sikkim built on land donated by the erstwhile Chogyal of Sikkim in 1935.[1] The temple houses almost all major deities and has emerged as an important center of convergence for the Hindu community of Gangtok.
