Tourism of India
Kaziranga National Park has developed in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts in the state of Assam over one hundred years ago. It has been listed as one of India’s twenty-nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites as it is home to two-thirds of the world’s Great One-horned Rhinoceros population. It is also an important bird sanctuary and tiger reserve and hosts a large breeding population of elephants and wild water buffalos.
The seventeen Biospheres in India protect not only the natural fauna of the country, but they also serve to protect the beautiful flora, many of which are only found in India. The lotus is the national flower of India, while the orchid and marigold plants are plentiful. Many flowers are used for medicinal purposes while bougainvillea, roses and jasmine are popular simply because of their extraordinary beauty. Many trees found in India hold special cultural and religious significance and hundreds of trees are protected as living, natural monuments. The official tree of India is the Banyan, while trees like the Indian rosewood, the Ashwagandha and the Brahmi are all popularly grown.
