Uttarakhand (English: /ˌʊtəˈrɑːkʌnd/), officially the State of Uttarakhand (Uttarākhaṇḍ Rājya), formerly known as Uttaranchal, is a state in the northern part of India. It is often referred to as the Devbhumi (literally "Land of the Gods") due to many Hindu temples and pilgrimage centres found throughout the state. Uttarakhand is known for the natural environment of the Himalayas, the Bhabhar and the Terai. On 9 November 2000, Uttarakhand became the 27th state of the Republic of India, being created from the Himalayan and adjoining northwestern districts of Uttar Pradesh. It borders Tibet to the north; the Province No. 7 of Nepal to the east; and the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh to the south and Himachal Pradesh to the west and north-west as well as Haryana on its south-western corner. The state is divided into two divisions, Garhwal and Kumaon, with a total of 13 districts. The interim capital of Uttarakhand is Dehradun, the largest city of the state, which is a railhead. The High Court of the state is located in Nainital.

I had an incredible experience visiting Rajaji National Park with Mohan's Adventure Tours. I booked easily ahead of time via Whatsapp messaging. The owner and staff were all incredibly kind, helpful and knowledgeable. You will find beautiful wildlife photography all over the office! The owner of this service is a professional wildlife photographer and he and his staff do amazing tours in various places, including Rajaji National Park. If you want to visit this beautiful park with people who are extremely enjoyable to work with and know the ins and outs of the park, book with Mohan's Adventure Tours! The safari I took (although I didn't see anything crazy like a tiger) has been one of the highlights of my trip to India (and life) so far. :) Thank you to everyone at Mohan's Adventure Tours!!! :)
