Janaki Mandir

Jānakī Mandir is a Hindu temple in Jānakpurdham, Nepal, dedicated to the Hindu goddess Sītā. It is an example of Koiri Hindu architecture. Fully built in bright white and constructed in an area of 1,480 square metres (15, 930 sq. feet), it is a three-storied structure made entirely of stone and marble. It is a major destination for the tourism in Mithila. The walls of the temple have Mādhubānī paintings. All its 60 rooms are decorated with the flag of Nepal, coloured glass, engravings, and paintings, with lattice windows and turrets. The Sītā Svayaṃvara (groom choosing ceremony) of Jānakī (Sītā) and Rāma as described in the Rāmāyaṇa is believed to have occurred here at the wedding mandapa attached to this temple. The site was designated as a UNESCO tentative site in 2008.
