Jump to:

The Keoladeo Ghana National Park is arguably India's most spectacular bird sanctuary.

Birdlife

Close to Agra, this small park was created by the Maharaja of Bharatpur to hold duck shoots but later became a sanctuary and now attracts an abundance of birdlife.

Today wading birds such as the sarus crane and, with luck, the rare Siberian crane may be seen.

Birdwatching

Black-headed Ibis, Bharatpur, IndiaIn our opinion Bharatpur is an excellent respite from the bustle of the cities, and birdwatching from a cycle rickshaw is an experience to cherish.
