Why March here
858 sq km of grassland and swamp on the Brahmaputra floodplain, holding over 70% of the world’s one-horned rhinos.
Kaziranga is Assam Tourism’s flagship: 858 sq km of tall grass, marsh and forest where the one-horned rhinoceros survives in numbers found nowhere else on earth, over 70% of the world population. Wild water buffalo, swamp deer, elephants and a dense tiger population share the floodplain.
