Keoladeo Ghana National Park

Local nameKeoladeo Ghana National Park
LocationBharatpur, India

Keoladeo National Park, or Keoladeo Ghana National Park, is a world-famous avifauna and wildlife sanctuary in Bharatpur, Rajasthan, India. The park hosts thousands of native, resident and migratory birds, especially during the winter season, when many different species fly to the Indian Subcontinent to escape winter's wrath further north in Eurasia. With at least 400 avian species having been noted or observed within, Keoladeo is a major tourism hub and Indian nature travel destination, both domestically and internationally. The wealth of species lures many amateur and professional birdwatchers and wildlife photographers, as well as scores of ornithologists during the hibernal season, who come to observe the migratory flocks' health, numbers and interactions with the local ecosystems.

Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary, as the Park was formerly named, was declared a protected sanctuary in 1971 and established as a national park on 10 March 1982.
