beauty and dynamism, where the past co-exists with the present. Many dynasties
ruled from here and the city is rich in the architecture of its monuments. Delhi

its location, being on the banks of the river Yamuna, many cities have risen
and fallen over the last five millenia.

The density of the tiger population at Bandhavgarh is relatively high. The possibility
of spotting Sloth Bear, Wild Boar, Leopard and Tiger is very good. The park
is also densely populated with animals like the Chital (Spotted Deer), Sambhar,
Barking Deer, Nilgai (Blue Bull), Chowsingha (Four Horned Antelope) and is rich
in bird life.
The terrain is rocky, rising sharply from the swampy and densely forested valley.
The finest of these hills is Bandhavgarh which is bounded by great cliffs and
eroded rocks. The Bandhavgarh Fort, believed to be 2000 years old, stands at
the highest point. There is a temple at the fort that can be visited by jeeps.
Scattered throughout the park, particularly around the fort, are numerous caves
containing shrines with ancient Sanskrit inscriptions. The ramparts of the fort
provide a home for vultures, blue rock thrushes and crag martins.
Dinner and overnight in Bandhavgarh.
Day 4 : Bandhavgarh

Morning and afternoon game drive into the sanctuary by Jeep.
The Forest Department has devised an ingenuous system of tracking the tiger
at this Park. Every day, early in the morning, elephants and their "Mahouts"
(drivers) are sent out into the jungle, in search of the Tiger. Once it has
been sighted, a radio message is flashed to the Forest Ranger, who in turn informs
the visitors in their jeeps, who are then taken on elephant-back, into the bush,
to see the elusive Tiger.
