Sacred ponds, Ram Mandir & Mithila art
Walk to Ganga Sagar and Dhanush Sagar, the sacred ponds where pilgrims perform ritual ablutions. Continue to Ram Mandir, the ancient temple dedicated to Lord Rama. Your guide narrates the story of how Rama broke Shiva's bow here. Observe local women in vibrant Maithili saris performing parikrama around the temple. In the afternoon, visit a local artisan's home to learn about Mithila painting, the ancient art form depicting Ramayana scenes and geometric patterns, and watch women artists create intricate designs using natural pigments. End with traditional Maithili cuisine and folk music before your departure.
