Janakpur

Right.

So your base camp has to be Janakpur.

Janakpur is a bustling, historic city about 20 kilometers to the east.

And getting there is pretty easy,

right? Yeah.

So you wake up in the cool air of Kathmandu, hop on a puddle jumper, and less than half an hour later, you are standing in the sweltering, vibrant heart of the Terai.

Exactly.

And from Janakpur, the guide outlines a highly efficient, culturally rich day trip.
