It is Assam's oldest park, spanning 430 square kilometres between the Brahmaputra River on the north and the Karbi Anglong Hills on the south. The park area and tea estates are boxed in by table-top tea bushes as National Highway 37 goes through. Rhinos and wild elephants can even be seen wandering along the highway.
Kaziranga National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is known for its steep woodland, thick elephant grass, rough reeds, marshes, and tiny lakes, and is home to the Great Indian one-horned rhinoceros. In 1974, it was designated as a national park.
Kaziranga National Park is one of the last remaining unspoiled regions in eastern India. It is home to the world's largest population of one-horned rhinoceroses, as well as tigers, elephants, panthers, and bears, as well as tens of thousands of birds.
From November through April, the park is open. Tourists can ride elephants around the park or travel along the Brahmaputra in a boat.

Kaziranga National Park's History In the early nineteenth century, the Kaziranga National Park was not well-known for its biodiversity and frequent floods. The Brahmaputra River washed away the extraordinary changes. The name Kaziranga is derived from Karbi, the name of a queen who ruled here in ancient times.
