Tall sal and riverine grasslands frame the first morning at Chitwan: mist lifts off the Rapti River and the jungle seems to breathe around the lodge. Guides speak in low voices; a gharial basks like a prehistoric shape on the bank, and hornbills call from the canopy. This is the rhythm of Chitwan National Park — a living landscape of river channels, alluvial plains, and terai forest that shapes every wildlife encounter.
