“ Learn to reverence night and to put away the vulgar fear of it, for, with the banishment of night from the experience of man, there vanishes a poetic mood, which gives depth to the adventure of humanity ”

Night is a dead monotonous period under a roof; but in the open world it passes lightly, with its stars and dews and perfumes, and the hours are marked by changes in the face of Nature. This weekend as the night walks down the sky along with the moon, it's time for an adventure! Grab your torches,put on your shoes and set out to see the jungle! Yes, it's a night trek!

Try the limits of your senses-sight, hearing and smell and take in the totally different world of nocturnal jungle life. A chance to feel the passage of time, the silence of the night and the pulse of jungle, to realize that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.
