Nichula Gewog is a gewog (village block) of Dagana District, Bhutan.[1] It also comprises part of Lhamoy Zingkha Dungkhag (sub-district), along with Lhamoy Zingkha and Deorali Gewogs.[2]

In 2007, Lhamoy Zingkha Dungkhag was formally transferred from Sarpang Dzongkhag to Dagana Dzongkhag,[3] affecting the town of Lhamozingkha and three constituent gewogs – Lhamozingkha, Deorali and Nichula (Zinchula) – that formed the westernmost part of Sarpang and became the southernmost part of Dagana.[4]
