I am Kavita Rai. I live in Pashupatinagar, ward no.4 in Ilam distirct. It is
located in the Eastern Development Region. It is a small but beautiful
village situated at top of a hill.
It is surrounded by hills and thick forest. Mostly, the forest consists of
Pine, Fir, Juniper, Brich and vegetations. But, the forests are gradually
getting thinner due to landslides and new settlements.
We have animals such as musk deer, leopard, porcupine, red panda,
jackals including many birds and rare insects. The rare herb ‘Yarsagumba’
is also found uphill. We also have different kinds of Rhododendron here.
The major river of this region is Mechi. It borders India. The view of Mt.
Kanchangha has made Pashupatinagar more beautiful. The temple of
Devi (also popular as Devisthan) is very popular. Many people visit this
temple from different places.
