Culture

At the foot of the Himalayas, Chitwan is one of the few remaining untouched vestiges of the 'Terai' region, which formerly extended over the foothills of India and Nepal.
Himalalyas has a particularly rich flora and fauna. One of the last populations of single-horned Asiatic rhinoceros lives in the park, which is also one of the last refuges of the Bengal tiger.
