|
Introduction : |
An insignificant unidentified little city known only to inhabitants like Siberian cranes, Flamingoes, Falcons and three sixty more species gives you a 360 degree overview of an unknown land called Bharatpur. |
|
| It’s a nature’s gift to bird lovers. Blend of marshes, woodland and flora are fascinating, corroborating the density and multiplicity of the region's forest area. |
|
| Bharatpur is renowned for its World Heritage. Bharatpur is renowned for its
World Heritage listed bird sanctuary, The Keoladeo Ghana National Park. A visit
to Bharatpur bird sanctuary has been a highlight for many tourists, even the non-bird watchers.
Although the history of Bharatpur dates back to 5th century BC, during the reign of Matsya kingdom, who was supposed to be the allies of Pandavas in the epic Mahabharata war, however, in much recent past during early 18th century the city was a Jat community stronghold. It was only in 19th century that the rulers signed the first treaty of friendship between the North West states of India and the East India Company of British Raj after withstanding a persistent war with British.
Today, the town itself is not much of interest other than of course the Keoladeo Ghana National Park attracting huge number of tourists especially during the months of October to February.
