Established in 1968 as a National Park, Bandhavgarh Wildlife Reserve is spread over an area of 448 sq. kms. This wildlife park was declared as a tiger reserve under Project Tiger in the year 1993. Covered with vegetation like saj, sali, dhobin and vast stretches of grasslands spread over 32 hills, the region though smaller than other wildlife parks has the highest density of tigers in it. A sparkling jewel in the crown of Madhya Pradesh, the Bandhavgarh National Park is truly a wildlife lover's delight and a must visit for all. 
Treated as the game reserve of the Maharajas of Rewa in the earlier times, the region was a major hunting ground of animals where Maharaja Raman Singh himself shot a stupendous figure of 111 tigers by 1914. It was atrocities like these on the vulnerable wildlife on India that forced our authorities to take stringent action and ban the shooting of animals. Bandhavgarh is also known for its population of rare white tigers. The backdrop at Bandhavgarh consists of rocky hills with flattened tops, and valleys with grasslands. Besides tigers, Bandhavgarh is also home to wild animals such as the Gaur, Leopard, Chinkaras, Boars, Jackals, Chausinghas, Ratels, Nilgais, Dholes, Indian Bison, Hyenas, Porcupines and Jungle Cats.
