Ranthambore National Park, located in Rajasthan, has a rich and storied history. Once the private hunting grounds of the Maharajas of Jaipur, the park was known for its dense wildlife and royal tiger hunts during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The decline in the tiger population led to increased conservation efforts, and in 1955, Ranthambore was declared a wildlife sanctuary.

In 1973, Ranthambore became part of Project Tiger, a national initiative to protect India’s dwindling tiger population. The park was officially declared a national park in 1980, and its boundaries were extended with the inclusion of the Sawai Mansingh Sanctuary and Keladevi Sanctuary.

Today, Ranthambore is one of India’s most celebrated tiger reserves, known not only for its thriving tiger population but also for its impressive Ranthambore Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that sits within the park, blending history and wildlife in one unique destination
