On the journey, we’ll be entering the Bardia National Park, which covers almost 374 sq mi in the Terai region of Nepal. Before, it was known as the Royal Bardia Wildlife Reserve and was set aside as a royal hunting reserve in the 1960s. Then, in 1988 the government finally proclaimed the area as a protected region and named it Bardia National Park.
A long time ago, people had rural settlements around the valley, but then later, they were shifted and resettled somewhere else. Now, the area is completely protected.
