Ramgram is a town and municipality in Lumbini Province of Nepal, and the capital of the Nawalparasi district lying west of Bardaghat Susta. At the 2011 census it had a population of 64,017 living in 13,137 households. Its former name, Parasi, is still widely used. The town lies about nine kilometres from the Mahendra Highway, the main arterial road of Nepal. Ramgram is mainly a Hindu town but is also an important place for Buddhists, because it is the site of the Ramagrama stupa, which dates to around 2500 BCE and holds one of the relics of the Buddha. About 7,000 tourists visit the stupa each year.
