When in Jaldapara, the biggest attraction is, of course, the national park. Spread across a sprawling 216 km, the national park is vast grassland with patches of riverine forests. Boasting of a variety of species of flora and fauna and home to the largest population of Indian one-horned rhinoceros, Jaldapara National Park was declared a sanctuary in 1941 for the protection of flora, fauna and the rhinos who are threatened with extinction. Apart from rhinos, tiger, elephant, sambhar, deer, barking, spotted and hog deer, bison are also popularly found here. It is also home to a large number of birds like eagle, jungle fowl, peafowl, partridge, hornbill, etc. Tourists can take jeep and elephant safari to venture deep into the jungle to spot animals.
