This park is a perfect example of how to care for and respect all aspects of Mother Nature. Bardia National Park is said to be similar to what Chitwan National Park used to be before the commercial development, which was nearly 30 years ago.
The beauty of this park is that animals walk freely, unhindered by the nearest human civilization.
