About this spot
Janaki Mandir is Janakpur’s major temple to Sita, also known as Janaki. Walk through the public courtyards and allow time for nearby shrines, following footwear and photography rules. The temple is an active pilgrimage destination, so plan around worship and festival crowds rather than expecting a quiet museum visit.
Vivah Panchami celebrates the marriage of Rama and Sita and brings large numbers of pilgrims to Janakpur.
