Gandaki River (English spelling)
A large tributary of the Ganges that flows from central Nepal to the northern part of Bihar in India. It originates on the border between Nepal and Tibet, and is joined by the three rivers Marsyangdi, Buri Gandaki, Trisuli Gandaki, and Kali Gandaki, which flow through deep gorges in the steep Himalayas, and then crosses the Mahabharat mountain range. In Nepal, it is also called the Narayani. It flows from Nepal to India, along the border between Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, and joins the Ganga on the north bank at Patna.
