Central India Wildlife Tour
Bandhavgarh National Park, formed in 1968, is unequalled by any other park in
India as far as tiger sightings are concerned. With a core area of 105 sq.km.
and a buffer zone of 437 sq kms, this reserve forest is home to leopards, sloth
bears, various deer and wild pigs apart from tigers. In the centre of the park
is a huge granite outcrop that until 1726 housed the great
fort
of the Maharaja of Rewa at the top. This magnificent fort which covered the
whole of the plateau is now a deserted ruin that looks down on the park some
500m below and provides a fantastic backdrop to the national park.
An excellent extension of this adventure trip is a visit to Khajuraho with its
world famous temples. The temples of Khajuraho were built under Chandela kings
between 950 and 1050 AD. Only 25 of the original 85 temples are intact and are
among the finest in India. Lost among the forests for centuries, they were accidentally
discovered by a British army engineer in 1838. The sculptures inside the temples
supposedly illustrate the Kama Sutra and the sensuality outside the temple contrasts
with the serenity within. Best time - November to April.
