Pakhribas research center is in Dhankuta not in Dharan. Dhankuta bazaar is about 50 KM north from Dharan. The place where Pakhribas center is further north from Dhankuta bazaar. It may be about 5-6 KM from Hile bazaar which is 12 KM north from Dhankuta bazaar. There was no public transportation from Hile to Pakhribas few years back. I don't know what's is the situation these days in terms of accessibility, security, and research opportunities. Before, it was excellent place to work and live temporarily.
