KATHMANDU: Sindhuli, known for its delicious junar (sweet orange) and oranges, is witnessing a busy market in Khaniyakharka.

Local farmers are rushing to sell their fresh produce as travelers along the BP Highway stop to buy them junar and oranges.

The region’s orange and junar juice is also gaining popularity.

The popularity of Junar is evident in the bustling markets of Selfidanda, Khaniyakharka, and Khurkot, where travelers often pause to relish its flavor before continuing their journeys.

The BP Highway sees the highest sales of Junar, making it not just the pride of Tinpatan but the identity of Sindhuli itself.

Beyond its economic benefits, this fruit brings immense self-satisfaction to local farmers.
