About the Chitwan National Park
Chitwan National Park, which was gazetted in 1973, is one of Nepal's first national parks and a World Heritage Site since 1984. Sukla Phanta is situated in the subtropical Terai lowlands of south-central Nepal and occupies an area of 932 square kilometers. It is famous for its diverse and picturesque environment. It is a complex of dense forests with meadows and rivers, making it possible to find almost any kind of animal there. Among the most well-known residents, one can mention the one-horned rhinoceros and the Bengal tiger, which are instrumental in the park’s preservation program. Chitwan has forests, marshland, and grassland for its habitat and, as a result, is one of the best wildlife viewing locations in all of Asia.
Besides the rich wildlife, it boasts an active one, which is famous for more than seven hundred species of wildlife like leopards, sloth bears, wild elephants, and gharial crocodiles. The park also has over 500 bird species, making it popular among bird watchers and other researchers. This is combined with the park's beautiful nature, which includes large forest spaces, clear water in rivers, and wonderful views of the Himalayas' foothills. Because of this, Chitwan draws many visitors who are interested in nature and adventure. The park and its many conservation activities, such as anti-poaching activities and community incentives, will help protect those species and enhance tourism's value.
A visit to Chitwan National Park also reveals cultural attributes. Tharu villages, home to indigenous people socially and culturally distinct from the mainstream Nepali community, encircle this park. You can interact with Tharus through guided village tours, witnessing a Tharu dance, or sampling Tharu dishes. Such cultural interactions provide a way of understanding how societies share their environment, in this case, with nature, while demanding societal engagement in conservation. In conclusion, Chitwan National Park is an extraordinary place that offers a hot mix of beauty and hospitality to people who want to turn their vacation into an adventure discovering the exotic Nepalese wilds.

The best time, season, or month for the Chitwan National Park tour.
Chitwan district has a scorching summer and a cold winter, and this leaves tourists with questions as to when is the right time to visit Chitwan for a holiday. If you are not an admirer of the hot and humid climate of Chitwan, the best months to plan a three-day tour of Chitwan National Park are September, October, April, and May.
The best times to visit Chitwan are from September to May because there are almost no chances of rain. We recommend visiting from mid-October to March if you prefer cool weather and low humidity. Still, if you can stand the heat that prevails in Trabzon in April and May, then the best time to go is in either of these two months. Remember that the mercury may rise to about 40 °CC in these months as well. Although fog may obscure the town and jungle, November, December, and January are the best months to visit Chitwan. Additionally, pollution from industrialization, automobiles, and garbage burning may result in a fog-induced haze, thereby limiting the enjoyment of the trip.
