Chitwan literally means “heart of the jungle”. In recent years Chitwan tops the list of things to do in Nepal. It is a truly wildlife adventure of a different kind – jungle safaris on elephant backs or jeeps, bird watching, canoe rides and jungle walks in the Chitwan National park are the best activities. The Chitwan National Park is Asia’s best preserved area, where wildlife thrives and their habitats remain intact. Only half-hour flight or five hours drive from Kathmandu, the park lies in the Inner Terai lowlands and consists of Sal forests, tall elephant grasslands, hills, ox-box lakes and flood plains of the Narayani, Rapti and Reu rivers.Chitwan is Enlisted as a UNESCO World Heritage Site (Natural) in 1984, the park spreads over an area of 932 sq. km. outfitternepal/nepal/jungle-safari/trip/chitwan-jungle-safari.html
