Sundarbans National Park

West Bengal, India

4.5 (0)

Overview

The planet's largest mangrove forest, where the Ganga delta dissolves into tide-swept islands ruled by swimming Royal Bengal tigers — explored by boat past mudskippers, crocodiles and honey-gatherers who still pray to Bonbibi before entering the forest.

Why visit: Boat safaris through a tiger-haunted mangrove labyrinth — like nowhere else.

History: A UNESCO site and Project Tiger reserve (1973) spanning India and Bangladesh; its name likely honours the sundari tree, and its man-tiger lore is unmatched on Earth.
