Kaziranga National Park-kaynatkazi-photography-2014-3448

As per The Shillong Times report, the Government of Assam has decided to throw open Kaziranga National Park (KNP), the famed abode of one-horned rhinoceros, for the visitors from October 1 this year instead of November 1. One of the state’s cabinet ministers Atul Bora informed that the national park which attracts maximum number of tourists — both domestic and foreign– in the state, would be opened from October 1 as per directive of the Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal. Usually, the park opens for tourists on November 1 and closes visitors on April 30 just before the onset of the summer season.

The Park authorities and the Assam Forest Department are now working overtime to restore the roads, bridges and other infrastructure inside the park that were damaged by devastating flood earlier this year.

Besides the rhino, Kaziranga National Park is home to tigers, elephants, buffaloes, spotted deer, hog deer, bear, varieties of reptiles, winged species, etc.

Located by the arterial highway that passes through the southern bank of Brahmaputra from the east to west of Assam, the Park is well connected through road, railway and air. (Source: travelbizmonitor.com/)
