Birganj
Travel Guide Asia Nepal Birganj
Introduction
Situated in central Terai, Birganj is not a top spot for most tourists to Nepal but if you find yourself passing through then it's worth a night.
It is the main freight way between India and Nepal so this town is often used as a border crossing point as the Nepali side is usually open 24 hours a day, however the Indian side usually is only open during the day.
Sights and Activities
The town itself has a few sights. There is a clock tower decorated in Buddhist and Hindu iconography, the Gahawa Maysan Mandir sacred to Durga and Ghariarwa Pokhari, a sacred pond used by locals as a swimming pool.
