A MEGA STEP TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE FUTURE OF JANAKPUR

For first time in history, Janakpur is jeweled with the development which will bound regular tourists and pilgrims of Janakpur to spend more time and attract new tourists to the area. Several records show that Janakpur receives around 10 Lakh (One million) tourists every year. They visit Janaki temple in Janakpur and Dhanush temple at Dhanushadham and return back within no time lacking tourism spot in the area. It is natural that if we visit a place for half an hour, we carry fast food or readymade food with us instead of staying or having food in hotels and restaurants at that place. Janakpur is facing the same. Instead of getting benefited, Janakpur is used as a dust bin to throw plastic bags or packing materials and food wastes carried with the tourist. No hotel or restaurants get benefited at the level of tourist Janakpur receives every year. One will be highly excited to know that tourists visiting Janakpur and Dhanushadham will be able to spend much time here. Animal enclosures are being constructed in the forest situated at Dhanushadham, near Dhanush temple (20 KM North–east from Janakpur). Snake enclosure and turtle enclosure is constructed as part of proposed Dhanushadham Biological Unit inside Dhanushadham Protected Forest. Though the plan has been approved by Government of Nepal in 2069 B.S. (2013 AD), it is unable to drag the attention of Government or other donor agencies. The development is being carried out with the small-small contributions from individuals of Nepal, donations through Mithila Wildlife Trust and budget of Dhanushadham Protected Forest by Department of Forest, Government of Nepal. Some of the wild animals rescued by Mithila Wildlife Trust will be housed in enclosures for exhibition where most of them are directly released in the wild. We believe that this will encourage local residents and tourist of the park to conserve wildlife. You are heartily invited to visit Dhanushadham Protected Forest and guide us through the developments. You can also contribute in the developments. Name plate will be attached with the development for your contributions. Let’s join together to develop Janakpur. Recently, Incredible Mithila, a social enterprise in technical support of Lakshya Career Education and Research Center has started Explore Mithila campaign which is fusion of Adventure, Culture, Tourism and Science (ACTS). Tourists are allowed to spend 24 hours inside forest and know each and every aspects of Dhanushadham Protected Forest and surroundings. Once can contact Incredible Mithila for booking the the packages.
