Chitwan is one of the few remaining undisturbed vestiges of the 'Terai' region, which formerly extended over the foothills of India and Nepal. It has a particularly rich flora and fauna. One of the last populations of single-horned Asiatic rhinoceros lives in the park, which is also one of the last refuges of the Bengal tiger.I took the tourist bus from Pokhara for 6 hours and switched buses 3 times. When arriving in Chitwan (the village), i took a local bus for the 7km into the tiny village.
I took a one/day jungle walk of 20 kms and saw many animals including rhinos, deers, two kinds of monkeys, crocodiles, and many different kinds of birds. I will upload most of the photos taken with my digital camera when I have access to a computer. I did not see any tiger but their drops and footprints.
You survived all that in one piece lol!
