Royal Chitwan National Park in the central Terai
lowlands and Bardia National Park in the western Terai provide some of
the best wildlife and nature viewing places in Asia . Visit a wonderful
world of lush sub-tropical jungles, tall elephant grass, lakes and
rivers – a home for some of the most endangered animals on earth, the
elusive tiger and the prehistoric rhinoceros, including many species of
mammals, birds, insects and reptiles. Make your tour on elephant back,
by jeep and on boat. Savor the forest and its unique sanctuary through a
quite natural walk with a local guide.
To quench the interest of viewing watchful flight of rare birds and wild
buffaloes, the Kosi Tappu Wildlife Reserve, in south-east Nepal,
provides a unique venue for watching migratory waterfowl, waders and
shore birds that congregate along the Kosi River from December to
February every year.
