Gundlupet: One of the tourist destinations that never fail to impress the tourists are the wildlife sanctuaries. The tension and delight in spotting the animals in the wild is what makes these visits an adventure. In the light of the summer holidays, like every year the Bandipur National Park and the neighbouring Gopalaswamy Betta are the major attractions. Most of the tourists, en-route to Ooty, the hill station in neighbouring Tamil Nadu, known for its cool weather are stopping at Bandipur.
Thousands of tourists are visiting Bandipur National Park (which is considered one of the most beautiful and better managed national parks of India) every day from morning itself and go on Safari rounds which begin at 7.30 am and ends at 9.30 am. The open buses and jeeps which ferry the tourists deep inside the forest is full of excitement as herds of deer, elephants and bison never fail the watchers.
