The Chitwan National Park is spread over an area of 932 sq km. The Chitwan National Park is Nepal’s oldest and most visited national park in Nepal. Originally a rhino sanctuary, this well-protected area of subtropical forest was established in 1973 and consists of varied ecological landscapes: Churia Hills, oxbow lakes, and flood plains of Rapti, Reu, and Narayani Rivers.
What can you see while in Chitwan National Park? The flagship species of the park are one-horned rhinos, Asian elephants, mugger crocodiles, and Bengal tigers. Over 43 diverse species of mammals reside in the park, including gaur, four-horned antelope, striped hyena, pangolin, monitor lizard, and python.
A total of 450 species of birds have been recorded in the area, including Bengal florican, giant hornbill, black stork, white stork, peafowl, red jungle fowl, egrets, herons, kingfishers, flycatchers, woodpeckers, and several other fowls.
You will also visit the nearby Tharu settlements to enjoy the Tharu cultural dance. The Tharus are the indigenous peoples of Nepal, whose ancestral land comprises the inner Terai. The most amazing thing to do in Chitwan National Park is that you can play with the Elephant and respect the animal's rights. Jeep drive into the dense Jungle is the most beautiful way to enjoy with wild animals.
