World renowned for its population of tigers,
Kanha National park provides excellent opportunities for observing these
magnificient animals in the wild on jeep drives and elephant backs.
While
this lushly forested country is immediately familiar to readers of Rudyard
Kipling, it has also recently been the site of extensive research on the
ecology of tigers, deer, langour, Barasingha deer, gaur and wild dogs.
North
of Kanha is Bandhavgarh National Park where the first white tiger was
captured and most of the white tigers in captivity have descended from that
tiger. In former times Bandhavgarh was the exclusive hunting preserve of the
Mharaja of Rewa. Tigers are looked for on elephant back and their sighting
is good. Past history pervades the forest in the form of immense sculpture
of the Hindu god Vishnu, caves and a fort. Both the National Parks are
country's prime Tiger Reserve under Tiger project.
Not far from
Bandhavgarh are the Temples of Khajuraho. They are the Master pieces of
Temple architecture. Of the temples many have exquisitely and explicity
carved scenes from Kamasutra. Build in the 10th to 11th century by the
chandella dynasty, they are in a marvelous state of preservation.
