Unit Comparison
Land measurements in Nepal vary significantly between the Hilly regions (using Ropani) and the Terai plains (using Bigha). Always cross-verify with official "Lalpurja" documents.
Comprehensive Nepali Land Unit Converter
Real estate measurement in Nepal is unique because of its two distinct systems. Our Land Converter simplifies the complex process of converting traditional Nepali units like Ropani, Aana, Bigha, and Kattha into modern Square Feet and Square Meters.
Hilly vs. Terai
In the Hilly regions (including Kathmandu Valley), the Ropani-Aana-Paisa-Daam (RAPD) system is standard. In the Terai plains (Madhesh), the Bigha-Kattha-Dhur (BKD) system is used. Our tool handles both flawlessly.
Standard Conversion Factors
- 1 Ropani = 5476 Square Feet
- 1 Aana = 342.25 Square Feet
- 1 Bigha = 72900 Square Feet
- 1 Kattha = 3645 Square Feet
- 1 Dhur = 182.25 Square Feet
Who is this for?
This tool is essential for real estate agents, land buyers/sellers, architects, and civil engineers working in Nepal. When looking at a Lalpurja (land ownership certificate), you will see units in the traditional format; use this calculator to visualize the physical size in more familiar metric or imperial units before making property decisions.
