Kaziranga is one of the largest Protected
Areas in India and one of the most prominent conserved forest areas on
world geography. Located on the banks of the mighty Brahmaputra River in
the far North East of India, Assam, Kaziranga National Park covers an
area of approximately 430-sq-kms with its swamps and tall thickets of
elephant grass making it the ideal habitat for the Indian One-Horned
Rhino. Kaziranga has justly earned its place as the flag bearer among
all the wildlife conservation efforts across the globe. Into its
hundredth year of existence, the tradition continues. Kaziranga's
visiting season is from mid-November to early April months. During the
monsoons, the Brahmaputra River bursts its banks, flooding the low-lying
grasslands and causing animals to migrate from one area to another
within the Kaziranga National Park
