The Bardia National Park is the largest and most undisturbed protected area in the Terai and is home to the endangered Royal Bengal Tiger and Nepal’s famous one-horned rhinoceros. Covering the 968 sq km area, Bardia is the largest National park in Terai. Bardia is what Chitwan was 30 years ago visited by very few tourists.
