Kaziranga National Park
|
Located on the banks of the mighty Brahmaputra River, Kaziranga covers an area of
approximately 430 sq kms with its swamps and tall thickets of elephant grass making
it the ideal habitat for the Indian one-horned rhino. Due to limitless poaching
of this prehistoric survivor, the park was declared a sanctuary in 1940.
The vast open country makes Kaziranga very accessible and wildlife viewing fairly
pleasurable. Here one can leave in the early hours of the dawn for an elephant-back-ride.
The elephants are trained by authorized and trained mahouts who guide visitors through
the park. One could see wild elephant herds roaming around or rhinos browse past
visitors unconcernedly.
Since Kaziranga is easily accessible, its provides a chance to see animals in the
wild at such close quarters, thus making a trip to this National Park a very rewarding
experience.
