| Deoghar
has a picturesque location. To the north of -the town there is a wood called Data Jungle
after a fakir; to the north-west is a low wooded hill called Nandan Pahar; and to the east
about 10 miles away there is a low range of hills known as Tiur or Trikutaparvata. There are a number of small hills to the south-east, south and
southwest. There are two rivulets Yamunajor and Dharua near the town. The countryside
around Deoghar has an attractive set-up with undulations, water courses and small hills.
The climate is dry and congenial and Deoghar is still considered a health resort in
spite of the great congestion particularly due to the, temple of Baidyanath and the
location of the criminal and civil courts and a. very large number of Government
establishments. |
