Step into the diverse realm of Bengal Safari, an expansive zoological wonder spanning 297 hectares adjacent to the Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary. Amidst the lush landscape, witness the graceful presence of Royal Bengal Tigers, fish-eating crocodiles, and Asiatic black bears. The wild comes alive with the spirited dance of herbivores like barking deer and hog deer, accompanied by the vibrant plumage of peacocks, black ibis, and kingfishers.
