Salahesh Fulbari

Salahesh Fulbari (Nepali: सलहेश फुलवारी), also known as Fulbari Mela, is a garden of historical and cultural significance to the south of East West Highway in Lahan Municipality, Siraha District, Province No. 2, Nepal. It is famous for an orchid that is believed to bloom only on the eve and first day of year, Baishakh, the first month of the Bikram Sambat calendar. This funfair is held at 4 km West from the city of Lahan at the area of 14 Acres.

Named after local demigod Salahesh, the garden receives thousands of pilgrims from different parts of Nepal and India each year on the first day of Baishakh. The orchid grown at the tree is taken as a token of love between Salahesh, who is often taken as a folk hero in the Mithila region, and his beloved Malini.
