"For
wildlife enthusiasts India has unlimited options
to offer. Corbett, to the north of Delhi, is one
of India's best national parks with healthy populations
of the tiger and elephant. The semi-arid forests
of Sariska harbour many species of mammals, notably
nilgai, sambar and wild boar, and the marshes of
Bharatpur are home to over 300 species of birds
and is recognized as one of the best bird sanctuaries
in Asia. Bandhavgarh is one of the few areas left
in India where you have a good chance to see the
rare and endangered tiger in broad daylight. Wildlife
areas alternate with the forts and palaces of Jaipur,
the Taj Mahal of Agra and the exquisite erotic temples
of Khajuraho. Season - November through April."
