Located in the north-eastern state of Assam, Kaziranga National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of India’s greatest wildlife conservation success stories. Spanning 1,090 square kilometers across the floodplains of the mighty Brahmaputra River, the park is world-famous as the home of two-thirds of the global population of the endangered one-horned rhinoceros.First established as a reserve forest in 1905 and declared a national park in 1974, Kaziranga has evolved into a thriving ecosystem of tall elephant grass, wetlands, and semi-evergreen forests. It shelters a remarkable variety of species, including Royal Bengal tigers, Asiatic wild water buffalo, swamp deer, wild elephants, and over 450 species of birds, earning it the status of an Important Bird Area by BirdLife International.Kaziranga is divided into four tourism ranges—Central (Kohora), Western (Bagori), Eastern (Agaratoli), and Burapahar—each offering unique landscapes and wildlife encounters. Visitors can explore the park through jeep safaris or elephant-back safaris, with opportunities to witness wildlife at remarkably close quarters.Beyond its wildlife, Kaziranga offers glimpses into Assamese rural life, local cuisine, and vibrant culture. From misty mornings over golden grasslands to the thrilling sight of a rhino silhouetted against the sunset, Kaziranga is an unforgettable experience for nature lovers, photographers, and adventure seekers alike.
