No Comments Sariska
Travel To India November 23rd, 2009
 Wildlife in Rajasthan is among the major tourist attractions of the state. The arid climate and a varied topography have resulted in a wildlife which is, in many ways, unique to the state. The desert, the old Aravalli hills, lakes, and natural forests have been resided by many animals for millions of years. As human population encroaches into the wild habitat, the problem of conservation arises. Sariska National Park and tiger reserve is one of the most imp and well known protected forests in north India. It is one of the few pockets of forests that have survived along the ancient Aravalli hills. The National Park attracts a lot of tourists and wildlife enthusiasts from all over the world, thus contributing towards the growth of tourism in Rajasthan.
The protected area in the park measures about 800 sq kms, out of which about 480 sq kms is the core area. The Siliserh Lake is located besides the tiger reserve, besides the road between Sariska and Alwar. The flora of the forest includes dry deciduous vegetation typical of this region. The major species include Dhok, Tendu, Khair, Surwal, and Goria, apart from bushes and grasslands. Sariska was formerly the private hunting reserve of the royal family of Alwar. Tigers were once abundant here, supported by a self sufficient eco system. However, indiscriminate killing brought down the tiger population on the verge of extinction. The first protection came from the maharaja himself. Maharaja Jai Singh, the ruler of Alwar brought the forest under protection in the late 19th century. After independence the forest was declared a wildlife sanctuary in 1955. National park status came much later, in 1982, although a core area was identified and declared a tiger reserve in 1979, as part of project tiger. The tiger population in Sariska has improved ever since, although poaching and limited area remain major concerns. Tigers are not sighted commonly here, though pug marks and other signs can be picked up by experienced guides. Panther, jungle cat, hyena, jackal, caracal and wild dogs are the other important carnivores of the forest. The last two species named have been sighted but are very elusive and accurate data about their population or behavior is lacking. Crocodiles can be seen at the Siliserh Lake, besides other reptiles like the monitor, snakes, and chameleons. The herbivores include cheetal, sambar, nilgai, chinkara, porcupines, and hares. The park is home to a large number of birds. These include the commonly found species in this region, like gray partridges, pea fowl, quail, white breasted king fisher, sand grouse, crested serpent eagle, tree pie, wood peckers and the great Indian horned owl. A wonderful feature of the park is the strategically placed and comfortable hides that enable the tourists to observe wild animals from up close. These are placed near the water holes that are frequented by animals. The other way to explore the wildlife is by jeep safaris. One should start at dawn, or alternatively, before dusk. The surfaced roads and trails are convenient to travel by forest vehicles, and experienced guides will guide you as you go deep into the jungle. Sariska is also home to many historic sites, among which the Neelkanth temples located nearby, the medieval Kankwari fort and the palace that has been turned into a hotel are the chief ones. Tourists can find accommodation in the two hotels near the park, the Tiger Den Hotel (RTDC) and the Sariska Palace hotel. The forest bungalow is another option. Tourists can also find many hotels in Alwar. The nearest airport is located in Jaipur, 110 kms away. The nearest railway station is Alwar, 36 kms away. November to march is the best time to visit Sariska National Park. |

Explore The Grand Canyon
Travel To USA November 17th, 2009
Grand Canyon is 3.5 hours from Las Vegas to the Canyon County. The trip itself is boring because the apparent path around the fields was barren, but when he had met unpaved roads that are bumpy full of holes, so all eyes are sleepy because your body is refreshed even occasionally flew upwards, past the dirt road uneven.
The most fun when driving a jeep for all off-road experience in the surrounding areas Canyon. But see also cars luxury sedan through the streets as the latest Bentley, Lamborghini and even also seen along the road.
The road was not long broken only about 30 minutes drive (not paved deliberately driving sensation that is more memorable to the Canyon) after passing through the pavement looked back and I heaved a sigh of relief no longer need to bother to defend himself not to tilt left or so Canyon start looking from a distance. Color seems a giant brown stone mounting, circling all the way to the point where the car park is required.
Once out of the car, I went to the building that offers a unique souvenir at the same Canyon where I could choose I would use the vehicle to the Grand Canyon. The options offered by a la Cowboy rode around the entire Grand Canyon adventure at the same time a fire had to burn a steak for dinner menu. The second bid to climb the helicopter to explore the Grand Canyon from top to enter the deepest recesses and American dining. I chose the third alternative, the bus climbed up into the sky walk and eat Indian foods.
Canyon Country is a paradise for nature lovers. Once the location is home to the tribes of American Indians. Later, the western nations that previously only occasionally visit this place, finally helped inhabiting this remote region. Canyon Country has a spectacular landscape and inhabited by wild animals typical American. This region was still more special with the “footprints” Indian tribe that was almost extinct.
Sky Walk, offers a new adventure in the Grand Canyon is a semicircular bridge, made of transparent glass so that the body seemed to float in the air with a view down a 4000 feet drop. Imagine!
Not everyone dared to be above such transparent bridge, especially for people with fear of altitude sickness. Some people who have already bought a ticket trying walk up the sky, but many also fail because of fear street, past the bridge when the ticket is $ 25.
Exactly 3 weeks after I was inaugurated fortunate to enjoy the actual bridge if I walked fast it only takes 3 minutes to spend from one end to the other. But not everyone is able to linger because horrified to see the gap that once seemed far beneath the body, so most of canceling or yelling for help a lot security guard at the Sky walk.
