Bharatpur

Bharatpur – The Birding Paradise of India

Where Nature Whispers Through Every Wingbeat

Located in the Brij region of eastern Rajasthan, Bharatpur is a unique blend of natural beauty and historical significance. Known globally for the Keoladeo Ghana National Park, Bharatpur is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Asia’s finest bird sanctuaries. Beyond its avian wonders, the city also boasts royal heritage, ancient temples, and cultural charm—making it a peaceful yet enriching stop on the Rajasthan travel map.

Founded in the early 18th century by Maharaja Suraj Mal, Bharatpur was the capital of the princely state ruled by the Jats. It was once a formidable fortified city known for resisting British attacks and preserving its independence longer than many neighboring kingdoms. While much of its martial past is preserved in forts and palaces, today the city is better known as a haven for migratory birds and eco-tourists from around the world.
