Nepal’s first national park situated in southern central part is declared as ‘world heritage nature site’ in 1979 by UNESCO. Chitwan National park is the shelter of one-horned rhinoceros and royal Bengal tigers.
While the high Himalaya makes up Nepal's northern region, the southern lowland known as the Terai is covered with dense tropical jungles teeming with diverse wildlife and exotic birds, which makes Chitwan National park one of the most popular destinations for tourists who want to see wildlife animals up close. This national park shelters up to 56 different kinds of mammal species including the one horned rhinoceros, Bengal Tiger, leopard, sloth bear, wild elephant, striped hyena, Genetic dolphin and wild bison. There are an estimated species of birds, 126 species of fish, 590 species of butterflies and 47 species of reptiles in the park. The forest is covered predominantly by 'Sal', a kind of tree which mainly is found in the mountain area, interspersed with tall grasslands, small hills, ox-bow lakes and flood plains.
Chitwan Jungle safari tours offer other thrills that include canoe rides along the Jungle rivers, nature walks, bird watching excursions, and elephant back safaris as well as elephant bathing, and village tours. Here you will find some of the most exciting safari destinations in the world, where deep in the jungle on elephant back or four-wheel drive vehicle you can view some of the rarest and most endangered wild-life on earth in their natural habitat.
