Geography
Narayani contains parts of the Terai, Inner Terai, and Hill regions of Nepal, but it does not contain any of the Mountain or Himalayan region. Narayani is rich in flora and fauna. Considering the plain Terai, bordering India (to the south), where Arnas (Wild Bulls) run to the Hills from when fall falls, landscape structure of Narayani can be considered pretty unique. Narayani River and Rapti River are the main rivers of Narayani zone. Bisharari Lake, Garuda Lake are some of the few lakes in Narayani.
Narayani is divided into 5 districts:
| District | Headquarters |
|---|---|
| Bara District | Kalaiya |
| Chitwan District | Bharatpur |
| Makwanpur District | Hetauda |
| Parsa District | Birganj |
| Rautahat District | Gaur |

Famous quotes containing the word geography:
“The totality of our so-called knowledge or beliefs, from the most casual matters of geography and history to the profoundest laws of atomic physics or even of pure mathematics and logic, is a man-made fabric which impinges on experience only along the edges. Or, to change the figure, total science is like a field of force whose boundary conditions are experience.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“The California fever is not likely to take us off.... There is neither romance nor glory in digging for gold after the manner of the pictures in the geography of diamond washing in Brazil.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“Yet America is a poem in our eyes; its ample geography dazzles the imagination, and it will not wait long for metres.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
