Overview

Janakpur Nepal is known for the famous for Janaki Temple (or also known as Janaki Mandir), which was once the the palace for the lovebird – Goddess Sita and Lord Rama.

Janakpur is the birthplace of Goddess Sita too. We called Janakpur – city of love. A lot of couples got married at the Janaki Temple, and we believed once a couple tight the knot in Janaki Temple, they will get the blessings and will live happily together forever.

Janakpur is 8 hours away travel on beutiful BP Highway Nepal, and is 226km away from Kathmandu.
