About Bandhavgarh

Once used as a royal hunting ground for kings, life in Bandhavgarh has come a full circle with the natives now working hard to conserve its four-legged inhabitants. Bandhavgarh translates to “brother’s fort.” It is believed that Lord Ram gifted a fort in the vicinity of this place to his younger brother Lakshman. The Bandhavgarh National Park was declared a tiger reserve in 1993 under a conservation project. It supports an ecosystem of 22 mammals and 250 bird species in perfect harmony.
