It is a densly populated district with wide range of ethnic people.<br /> <br /> Dharan Bazaar isthe focal point of this region, lying at the base of the evergreen Bijaypur Hills. An unusual feature of town life is the Union Jack that flies over one of the squat single-storey buildings. This is one of the British Army Gurkha recruiting centres in Nepal. Wiry teenagers from the hills continue a long and noble tradition, enlisting usually for life while older generations, now retired, make the long trek each month from the same hills to pick up their pensions. A tough physical examination limits the number of recruits but those who succeed are fitted out with new uniforms<br /> and flown abroad for 10 months’ basic training, thereafter returning home for their first leave to a hero’s welcome from their relatives and neighbours.<br /> <br /> The new recruits walk through Dharan smiling proudly and browsing among the market stalls in the old town, where vendors peddle oranges, butter, and herbs.

Bijayapur is naturally adorned with typical geo-topography and has a congenial climatic condition. It is a historical township from where the rulers including the Sen Dynasty used to run administration. The ancient artifacts adornment<br /> of Bijayapur is now disappearing.<br /> Valued by Hindus from prehistoric period as the place where ‘Pancha Pandavs’ conducted ‘Maha Yagya’ in ‘Dwapar Era’ (Era with Krishna as the incarnation of Lord Vishnu during the Mahabharata<br /> age), Bijayapur is equally holy place for mongols where shrine of Buda Subba exists.

The Hindu myths and the legends say at the death of Satidevi, bereaved Mahadev carried the dead body upon his solder and walked incessantly in utter agony.<br /> Different parts of the body fell in different places as he walked on and the teeth fell in the place where the temple stands at present. The holy book of ‘Swasthani Brata Katha’ asserts this and gives the name Dantakali lilterally Danta meaning teeth and ‘kali’ one of the various forms of goddess Durrga.<br /> <br /> Thousands of devotees from far and near congregate here with great religious fervour; mainly the first nine days of Dashain see great crowds offering worship and sacrifice of goats and other animals and birds.

Besides, large number of nature lovers and picnic groups come here to enjoy the beauty of nature.<br /> <br /> Varahakshetra, located at the confluence of Sapta Koshi and Kora rivers of Sunsari district, is one of the most famous pilgrimage site of the Hindus from the time immemorial. It is among the four holy Chhetra (Areas) of Hindu pilgrims two of which Varahakshetra and Muktinath, are in Nepal and<br /> the rest lie in India.<br /> <br /> Varaha or the boar is the third of ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu.

Nowhere are the country’s stunning scenic contrasts more sharply defined than in the Arun valley, in the shadows of the Khumbu Harkna Himal, beneath daunting 8,481meter peak, where the wide, lazy Arun River meanders along the valley floor. The river bestows a mantle of verdant green and nourishes the cool leafy trees which provide shade all along this enchanted valley and its many neighbouring valleys. Its villages have remained unchanged for centuries.<br /> <br /> Though only a short distance northward above the tree-clad hills rise the world’s mightiest mountains, at its lowest levels the valley could be in Africa. The bare red earth is dotted with stunted, semi-arid, savannah grass. Groves of succulents and stands of banana trees repeat the African image.<br /> <br /> The heat of the sun’s rays, funnelled into the valley by the rising hills, is merciless. Brickmakers use it to bake their product for the thatched cottages on the hillsides. In the north, the valley is bounded by the snow covered 4,100 meter Shipton Pass, beyond which lie the mountains surrounding the three<br /> great peaks of Everest, Makalu and Lhotse.<br /> <br /> Anglers delight in the Ishwa valley, its slopes thick with rhododendrons and magnolias and its mountain streams alive with fish. Barun, another valley, its walls a tangled jungle of undergrowth, with rushing streams and plunging waterfalls, forms an amphitheatre, with the distant Makalu centre-stage.<br /> <br /> It was in one of the rivers in this area — at a height of almost 5,000 metres (17,000 feet) — that a wildlife expert discovered what may well be the only high - altitude salamander in the world.<br /> <br /> Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve is situated on the flood plains of the Sapta-Koshi in Saptari and Sunsari Districts of Nepal. The reserve is defined by the eastern and western embarkments of the river.<br /> <br /> Vegetation found are mainly sand with a few patches of scrub forest and decidous mixed riverine forest.<br /> The reserve offers important habitat for a variety of wildlife. The last surviving wild buffalos are found there. Hog deer, wild boar, spotted deer and blue bull and 208 different species of birds have been recorded.<br /> These include 20 species of duck, two species of ibis, many storks, egrets and herons.
