About the place
Sariska is probably one of the most visited parks in India.
Unfortunately though, the main reason for this is not wildlife enthusiasm
but only it's excellent proximity to some large towns like Delhi and Jaipur.
The park was, as with many other parks, the hunting reserve of the royal
family in the area. In this case, it was the Royal family of Alwar.
The reserve was declared a wildlife sanctuary in 1958 and came under the "Project
Tiger" as a tiger reserve in 1979. The park covers quite a large area
of 800 square kilometers, 480 square kilometers of which form the core area
of the national park. It is located among the Aravalli hill ranges in the
Alwar district of Rajasthan. Due to the presence of monuments of religious
importance located within the park boundaries, the park authorities are
compelled to keep the park open throughout the year. Unfortunately, the only
restrictions they are able to impose during this "off-season"
period are those on entry into the jungle routes. The main road is kept open
all year round.
