Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, was struck by an earthquake with a 6.1 magnitude on Sunday.
The earthquake with the epicentre in the Dhading district was reported at 7:39 a.m., according to the National Earthquake Monitoring and Research Centre.
There was no report of deaths or property damage as a result of the tremor.
Other provinces' districts in the Bagmati and Gandaki also felt the jolt.
In Nepal, atop a ridge where the Tibetan and Indian tectonic plates connect, earthquakes are frequent. As the two plates move closer to one another every century, pressure builds up and is eventually released as earthquakes.
A 4.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal's Sudurpaschim province on October 16.
In 2015, a 7.8-magnitude earthquake and its aftershocks claimed the lives of about 9,000 people.
Nepal is the eleventh most earthquake-prone country in the world, according to the government's post-disaster needs assessment (PDNA) study.
