By on July 24, 2019

Nara Park is a public park, located in Nara city, is famous for its semi-wild deers who are friendly and intelligent. I went to this city just to visit this park, it is special because of over 1200 deers freely roaming around in this beautiful natural treasure, and are friendly to humans as they get lots of human interaction every day. They are so intelligent that they have learned to bow if you offer them food, you can easily get the husk crackers outside the park which they love to eat.

By on April 12, 2017

I visited Ranthambore National Park in early January when we were planning for a short trip of two days and searching for a peaceful place which is close to nature. We went there by train from Delhi to Sawai Madhopur and it is so convenient, you will reach there in 6 to 7 hours. (I personally love the train journey a lot, as it provides serenity out of the regular busy life).
