Travel Agent for Sariska National Park

|
Sariska Tiger Reserve-sprawling across 800 square kilometres of the Aravalis-is perhaps one of India’s most exciting wildlife reserves. No other area is so easily accessible to start with, lying just three hours away from Delhi by road. Sariska is one of the few remaining forest pockets in the Aravali range that has survived the onslaught of modern times. The park, for the wildlife and nature enthusiasts, offers a unique opportunity to observe keenly the behavioural patterns of the animals at waterholes. But, to be a witness to these fascinating sights, one needs to be a bit patient and let the inhabitants go about their life in the natural way. With luck, sighting a tiger, chital, sambar, leopard, chinkara, or crocodile basking in the sun on the shores of the Siliserh Lake are not rare. Situated in the state of Rajasthan with a backdrop of the Aravali Hills, the park boasts of quite a few tigers and other interesting flora and fauna. There are also historical ruins and monuments within Sariska’s confines that are symbolic of its rich past.

Some of the important tourist sites in Sariska National Park are:
The landscape of Sariska comprises hills and narrow valleys of the Aravali hill range. The topography of Sariska supports scrub-thorn arid forests, dry deciduous forests, rocks and grasses. The wide range of wildlife here is a wonderful example of ecological adaptation and tolerance, for the climate here is variable as well as erratic, especially in terms of rainfall, which is scant at times. The major plants that one can find here are dhok, khair, tendu, and ber.
Sariska National Park is known for its tigers. According to the latest available data, there are about 35 tigers in the park at Sariska. Birds found here include peafowl, grey partridges, quails, sand grouses, tree pies, white-breasted kingfishers, golden-backed woodpeckers, crested serpent eagles, vultures and horned owls.
The Siliserh Lake is at the edge of the tiger reserve, just off the Alwar-Sariska road, and has a palace overlooking it, which has been converted into a tourist resort. Crocodiles are the major inhabitants of this lake and observing them basking on the shores of the lake can be an interesting experience.
The Kankwadi fort is Sariska’s link with Mughal history. Halfway through the eighteenth century, in the war of succession that followed Shah Jahan’s rule, his eldest son, Dara Shikoh was held captive here by Aurangzeb. The fort is overgrown with weeds and shrubs, but it stands majestically on a hill overlooking the Kankwadi plateau and a small lake surrounded by a few Gujjar (a tribe) villages. In the deserted rooms, the leopard’s drooping is regularly found.
Located inside the park are ruins of medieval temples of the Hindu God Shiva (Neel Kanth Temple). The ruins of the temple Garh-Rajor, built in the 10th century, are scattered all over the jungle. There is also a palace built by the erstwhile Maharajas of Alwar that has now been converted into a hotel.
