Vast, diverse, deeply spiritual and utterly unforgettable, India is unlike anywhere else on earth – a melting pot of ethnicities and religions, a treasure trove of history and culture, and a curious mixture of chaos and serenity. Stretching across more than three million square kilometres, it encompasses a staggering array of landscapes, vistas and environs, and offers unparalleled travel experiences – from the beautiful beaches of Goa, to the compelling craziness of Kolkata, the sacred Ganges river banks of Varanasi, the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas in Kashmir and the ancient, exquisitely crafted temples dotted across the entire country. Not to mention the vibrant, friendly people, and the incredible cuisine.
The Sundarban National Park, named after the Sundari trees of the area, is located in the Sundarbans delta in the state of West Bengal. This tiger sanctuary and biosphere reserve is home to an incredible ecosystem, a unique natural wonder of south Asia and the globe. The delta is spread over India and Bangladesh with an area of approximately 10,000 square kilometres and is enjoying the status of being the largest halophytic mangrove forest in the world. It is a delta of the Ganga and the Brahmaputra, converging on the Bengal basin. The whole area is a kingdom of the famous Royal Bengal Tigers.
