Bandhavgarh National Park in India is best known for its amazing setting, as well as having the largest number of tigers in India. In addition to tigers, there are also bears, deer, wolves, birds, etc.

Location: In the Umaria district of Madhya Pradesh state. The nearest village is Tala, which is the access to the park.

Opening Hours and Safari (游猎) Times

Safaris operate twice a day, starting at dawn until late morning, and mid-afternoon until sunset. The best time to visit the park is early in the morning or after 4 p. m. to spot the animals. The park is closed from July 1 to September 30 because of the monsoon season (季风季节).

Bandhavgarh Zones

Bandhavgarh is divided into three main zones: Tala (the park’s best zone, with the most tigers), Magdhi (the second best zone to see tigers) and Khitauli (scenic and less visited, although tiger sightings do occur there; particularly good for birding).

Entry Fees and Charges for Jeep Safaris

Bandhavgarh has become expensive to visit in recent years. Entry fees have increased since October 2014. When you are going on a safari, separate fees must be paid for park entry and jeep hire. Entry tickets are priced per vehicle (up to six people). From 2015 to 2016, park entry tickets’ costs were as follows:

Tala Zone: 2,400 rupees for Indians, 4,800 rupees for foreigners. (Up to six people)

Other Zones: 1,200 rupees for Indians, 2,400 rupees for foreigners. (Up to six people)

Jeep Hire

Expect to pay about 2,200 rupees to hire a jeep, in addition to the entry cost. This can be done at the park entrance. All hotels can organize jeep hire and tours, but at a higher rate. It’s much less trouble though. Besides, unlike many national parks in India, it’s possible to take private vehicles into Bandhavgarh.

   Though they may often be thought of as services for travelers，ferries（渡轮）are often ignored as tourist opportunities. In cities and regions all over the world，ferries offer an advantage for top destinations.

Take a famous ride in one of the world's greatest cities；New York's Staten Island Ferry is free all day，every day. On this 25-minute trip between Manhattan and Staten Island，passengers will get a fresh view of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

The Bosporus is a narrow，natural strait located in northwestern Turkey，which carries many a boat between its European and Asian shores. Ferries here offer 20-minute trips or six-hour tours into the Golden Horn. Both feature marks made on the city by 13 different civilizations，including the Egyptians and Bulgarians.

The Star Ferry travels between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, providing scenes of striking colors at sunset in the sky and against the skyline. The two-level Shining Star ferry is a reinvention of boats from the 1920s and offers tours of the harbor.

Though many cities host eye-catching ferry rides, other locations provide water journeys of a much greater range. Covering more than 3,500 miles, the Alaska Marine Highway System stretches along the coast from southern Washington to the Aleutian Islands. On this voyage, travelers can see wildlife including whales and bears, the largest national forest in the U. S. , and Alaska-native villages. While on the journey, travelers can book a two-or four-person cottage or put up a tent on one of the ferries.

Each with its own set of sights and experiences, ferries share just one thing—a new angle to redescribe your favorite place.
