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:
“At present cats have more purchasing power and influence than the poor of this planet. Accidents of geography and colonial history should no longer determine who gets the fish.”
—Derek Wall (b. 1965)
“Where the heart is, there the muses, there the gods sojourn, and not in any geography of fame. Massachusetts, Connecticut River, and Boston Bay, you think paltry places, and the ear loves names of foreign and classic topography. But here we are; and, if we tarry a little, we may come to learn that here is best. See to it, only, that thyself is here;—and art and nature, hope and fate, friends, angels, and the Supreme Being, shall not absent from the chamber where thou sittest.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“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)
