Mithileshwar’s Spellbound Rural Beauty (Photo Feature)

Janakpur: Janakpur has cultural and religious significance in Nepal.

Apart from the cultural perspective, the traditional lifestyle and communities have a different charm. The traditional settlements of the Mithileshwar area have a spellbound effect.

Green fields and traditional-style houses add beauty to Mithileshwar. Tourists and cultural people treat the lifestyle as a heritage. The organic lifestyle of the people makes one feel close to nature and oneself.

People forget themselves in the search for materialistic pleasure. They leave their home and chase their dream. But happiness and satisfaction have always been the crux for every person.

Without satisfaction and peace, every achievement of life will just be saltless. All you need is simplicity to cherish the beauty of life. Various settlements across Nepal, including the Mithileshwar, have a traditional feel.

Likewise, the traditional lifestyle is itself a therapy for the people living a chaotic life of people in cities. Mithaleshwar’s smell of soil, the fragrance of flowers, cattle, lake, pond, etc has a healing effect on the mind.

People in Mithaleshwar appear to be living in a rural settlement. But they are alive, happy, and energized. The unity and harmony among the community are heart-touching.

There is struggle, sweat, and labor. On top of that, one can feel peace and satisfaction. One can connect with the simplicity of the people easily.

The warm hospitality of Mithaleshwar makes you feel like you are part of the settlement.
