Sarlahi District

Sarlahi District spans 1,259 square kilometers across varied terrain, from Chure Hills in the north to Terai plains in the south.

The district name originates from the Sarla Devi temple in Hempur village, where local beliefs warn against carrying lights during nighttime visits.

The population includes Hindu, Muslim, and Buddhist communities, with Bajjika, Maithili, and Nepali serving as primary languages across twenty municipalities.

The district connects to Bihar state of India in the south and maintains transportation links with neighboring Rautahat, Mahottari, and Sindhuli districts.

Lalbandi municipality contains Nepal's largest Tropical Horticulture Center, producing substantial quantities of mangoes, litchis, tomatoes, and flowers for national distribution.
