Divided in 1 Municipality ( SoluDudhkunda) and 7 gaunpalikas ( Rural Municipalities), the district hasits headquarters in Salleri and counts a superficy of 3312km2 and a population of 106,000 .

The district ‘s extremely varied geography can be divided into three areas :

Khumbu Himal ( Highland Mountains)
