Narayani Bridge (Nepali: नारायणी पुल) is a bridge on the east–west (Mahendra highway) of Nepal located in the central region of Nepal. The bridge connects Gaindakot municipality of Nawalparasi District on the western region of Nepal,[1] with Narayanghat (Bharatpur, Nepal) city on the central development region. Built in the early 1980s, the bridge is roughly 420 m (1,380 ft) long and is considered one of the most important commercial travel routes in the country due to its passage over the Narayani River.[2] It has 15 large and round shaped pillars.
