Udayapur District

Udayapur is an administrative district in eastern Nepal that spreads between the Koshi and Sun Kosi rivers, spanning from lowland to mountainous terrain. The area comprises several towns and numerous villages distributed across different elevations.

The district developed under local governance and underwent a significant change when its headquarters were relocated to a new center in 1972. This shift was part of Nepal's administrative reorganization during that period.

The district is home to different communities like Chhetri, Rai, Magar, and Tharu, each keeping their own traditions and ways of living. Visitors will notice the varied local customs and the richness of stories passed down through generations that shape daily life.

The best time to explore is during the dry seasons when roads are more passable. Traveling through the district requires patience since the hills and valleys mean longer journey times.

At Tribeni, three rivers converge into a natural confluence, a place of religious significance where people gather year-round. This location draws visitors who want to experience the natural phenomenon and its spiritual meaning.
