The most curious feature about Rajasthan is its geographic diversity. From the semi-evergreen forests of Mt. Abu to the barren lands of the desert, and from the scrub-thorn arid forests of the Aravali to the marshy lands of the Bharatpur, Rajasthan spreads across 3,42,000 sq km providing a home to a wide variety of flora and fauna.
Rajasthan hosts three national parts and more than a dozen sanctuaries. Some of them include Ranthambhor National Park, Keoladeo Ghana National Park, Sariska Tiger Reserve, Bhensrod Garh Sanctuary and Mount Abu Sanctuary. These wonderful destinations provide the most fascinating scenes from the wildlife world. Travelers can enjoy a ride through the deep jungles of Rajasthan by a jeep or on elephant back.
