Previously Timure was a village development committee in Rasuwa District in the Bagmati Zone of northern Nepal. At the time of the 1991 Nepal census it had a population of 562 people living in 141 individual households.[1] Reconstructions of local level units in Nepal on 10 March 2017[2] made it a part of new Gosaikunda rural municipality.

In December 2014, a port of entry between China and Nepal was opened near Rasuwa Fort a few kilometers north of the village.[3]
