Kaziranga National Park
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kaziranga is globally famed for housing the world’s largest population of the endangered one-horned rhinoceros. Spanning across the floodplains of the Brahmaputra, this sanctuary is also home to elephants, swamp deer, wild buffalo, and tigers. The grasslands, wetlands, and dense forests make it a haven for bird watchers and photographers. Jeep and elephant safaris offer unforgettable wildlife encounters.
