Rabdentse was the second capital of the former Kingdom of Sikkim from 1670 to 1814.

However, the ruins of this city are seen close to Pelling and in West Sikkim district in the Northeastern Indian state of present-day Sikkim; Pemayangtse Monastery is one of the oldest monasteries in Sikkim which is close to the ruins.
