Tribhuvan Highway

The Tribhuvan Highway or NH 41 (previously: H02)(Nepali: त्रिभुवन राजपथ) connects the outskirts of Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, with Birganj/Raxaul on the Nepal-India border.

Its construction was completed with Indian assistance in 1956, and became the first serviceable road connection with India.

Thereafter, it is an unending series of climbs and descents through the Sivalik Hills north of Hetauda.

[5] Daman on Tribhuvan Highway has probably the finest view of the Himalayas extending on a good day from Dhaulagiri in the west to Everest in the east.

The four-lane fast track extending from the outer ring road in Kathmandu to Nijgadh in the Terai region will be the shortest and will only be 76 kilometres (47 mi).
