Nara Bhupal Shah (Nepali: नरभूपाल शाह; 1697–1743) was a king of the Gorkha Kingdom, which lies in modern day Nepal; and the father of Prithvi Narayan Shah. Nara Bhupal Shah was the son of Birbhadra Shah, the grandson of Prithvipati Shah. He was the king of the Gorkha state in Nepal. He unsuccessfully tried to extend his kingdom by capturing Nuwakot.[citation needed]
After his death, his eldest son, Prithvi Narayan Shah,[1] annexed Nuwakot and even the Kathmandu Valley, in his conquest of a unified Nepal.[citation needed]
