WHY VISIT
Janakpur Travel Guide
Janakpur is one of Nepal’s strongest cultural connections with India. It is associated with Sita or Janaki, and the city’s identity is shaped by Janaki Mandir, sacred ponds, Mithila art and major Hindu festivals. For most leisure itineraries, Janakpur is not a natural add-on to Pokhara or Chitwan because it sits in south-eastern Nepal. It works best as a dedicated spiritual circuit, as part of an Ayodhya–Janakpur concept, or for travellers entering Nepal from Bihar.
