About the hotel

Welcome to Hotel Perfect Plaza

Janakpurdham wakes early. Bells from the Janaki Mandir carry over the ponds before sunrise, cycle rickshaws fill the lanes, and by mid-morning the bazaar is loud and full of colour.

We are just off all of it — close enough to walk to the temple before breakfast, far enough that you sleep well. Cool floors, quiet rooms, and people at the desk who have lived in Janakpur their whole lives.

Janakpur

King Janak's capital, where Sita was born and where she married Ram. Ask at the desk and we will arrange a guide, a rickshaw or a car for the day.

Janaki Mandir

Built in 1910 on the spot where Sita is said to have been born, the temple is the heart of the city. Go early, before the heat and the crowds — or come back after dark, when it is lit up. It is ten minutes' walk from the hotel.

Here the bow of Shiva was broken, and a prince of Ayodhya won the princess of Mithila.

Vivaha Panchami

Each November or December the city celebrates the marriage of Ram and Sita, and pilgrims arrive in their tens of thousands. Rooms go early.
