Solo Ride - Chitwan to Janakpur (Janaki Mandir) 500KM #janakpur #nepal #mithila #mithilanchal

The mandir is popularly known as the Nau Lakha Mandir (meaning "nine lakhs"). The cost for the construction of the temple was about the same amount of money: rupees nine lakhs or nine hundred thousand, hence the name. Queen Vrisha Bhanu of Tikamgarh built the temple in 1910 AD. In 1657, a golden statue of the Goddess Sita was found at the very spot, and Sita is said to have lived there. The legend said it that it was built on the holy site where Sannyasi Shurkishordas had found the images of Goddess Sita. 🕉️🇳🇵 #janakpur #nepal #mithila #mithilanchal #maithili #mithilaculture #visitnepal #maithil #apanamithila #mithilapainting #jankimandir #supaul #apanmithilanchal #janki #janakpurdham #chitwan #saptari #nepali #janakitemple
