Sitamarhi
Sitamarhi is closely connected with the sacred geography of Sita and Mithila in Hindu tradition. Its appeal is best understood through the stories and devotional life of its temples. Visitors should approach those traditions respectfully while distinguishing religious belief from claims about independently established historical events or dates.
Discover Sitamarhi
Punaura Dham is associated with Sita's birthplace in local faith and provides a principal pilgrimage stop. Haleshwar Sthan is a Shiva temple linked by tradition with King Janaka, Sita's father in the Ramayana. Together they form a focused religious itinerary, while each deserves its own approach and time for worship. Confirm the actual addresses before setting out, since familiar sacred names may refer to different sites in the wider district.
