History
Since a long time ago people have come to worship in the Kankai River. They believe that doing so will fulfill their wishes. In the same way, in Poush of 2042 B.S. a great worship was done whole month in the leadership of yogi Narharinath. After that, this place developed into one of the religious sites of Nepal.[1]
