Sajjangarh Wildlife Sanctuary

Udaipur, Rajasthan, India
Encircling the famous Monsoon Palace, the Sajjangarh Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected area covering approximately 5.19 square kilometers. Once the royal hunting grounds of the Mewar Maharanas, it was officially declared a sanctuary in 1987. The terrain is characterized by steep hills and tropical dry deciduous forests, providing a natural habitat for a variety of flora and fauna. In 2015, a portion of this area was developed into the Sajjangarh Biological Park, a modern zoo that houses animals in large, naturalistic enclosures. Visitors can see majestic predators like Asiatic Lions, Bengal Tigers, and Leopards, along with herbivores like Chital, Sambhar, and Wild Boars. The sanctuary is also a haven for birdwatchers, especially during the monsoon when the landscape turns vibrant green. It serves as an essential ecological lung for Udaipur, blending wildlife conservation with eco-tourism.:
