Devghat in Chitwan district is a prominent pilgrimage site situated at the holy confluence of the major rivers, Kali Gandaki and Trishuli which includes such large tributaries as the Seti, Budhi Gandaki and Madi. The confluence is located at a point about 5 km northwest of Narayanghat town where the rivers emerge from the Mahabharat range and flow into the plains. Rechristened the Narayani River, it then flows to India as the Gandak River to finally join the Ganges near Patna in the Indian state of Bihar. For Hindus, any confluence of rivers is considered a holy site. Devghat is mentioned in several Hindu Scriptures such as the Baraha Purana, Skanda Purana, Padma Purana and the Himavatkhanda. The area surrounding the confluence is densely forested by sal trees. A large number of shrines, temples, ashrams and old age homes have been built at Devghat. The most prominent is the Chakreshwar Temple where the famed King Mukunda Sen of Palpa is said to have meditated and attained Nirvana in the 16th century. A huge religious fair is held at the site on the occasion of Makar Sankranti, the first day of the Nepalese month of Magh, in January. Devotees and pilgrims from all over Nepal and adjoining India come here to take a ritual dip at the confluence. Many elderly devout Hindus have their winter homes in this sacred area, and some of them stay here to spend their last days in the belief that breathing their last here will assure them a place in Heaven. Throughout the day and night, Devghat resounds with the ringing of bells and the singing of hymns, or bhajans, in the temples and ashrams

It is believed to be a sacred place where gods, sages, and saints have meditated for centuries. According to Hindu mythology, Devghat is associated with the epic Mahabharata, as the Pandavas are said to have visited this site on their final journey to salvation. The area is dotted with temples, ashrams, and caves dedicated to various deities, including Lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva, and Goddess Sita. Many elderly devotees choose to spend their final years here, believing that passing away at Devghat ensures liberation (moksha). The site is especially significant during Makar Sankranti, when thousands of pilgrims gather to take a holy dip in the sacred waters, seeking purification and divine blessings.
