The Periyar Tiger Reserve situated within the confines of the Western Ghats in the Southern Indian state of Kerala, is one of the most captivating wildlife parks in the world. The picturesque lake in the heart of the sanctuary spans an area of 55 sq km. This lake, which initially led to the submersion of large tracts of forestland, however became an excellent sanctuary for wildlife which includes Asiatic elephants, gaur (bison), tigers, leopards and bears among others. In 1975 Periyar forests were declared as a tiger reserve under the Project Tiger. Thekkady, the tourist zone of Periyar Tiger Reserve, is the embarkation point for visits to various parts of the park on boats for wildlife viewing.
