Sahid Gate or Shahid Gate (English: Martyr's Gate) is a monument in Kathmandu, Nepal. As of 2016, there are five statues in the gate. Four men, namely Dharma Bhakta Mathema, Gangalal Shrestha, Dashrath Chand, and Shukraraj Shastri, who are considered martyrs since they stood against the 104-year-old Rana Regime, have their statues above their arms established here. On top of all is a statue of former King Tribhuvan, who, in B.S. 2007 (A.D. 1950) cooperated with people to get democracy in the country.
In 2012 a Nepali cabinet meeting decided to move the statue of Tribhuvan from the Gate and to the Narayanhiti Museum and leave the statues of the martyrs only.
