About the Destination

The heart of India — a land of tigers, temples, and timeless heritage.

Madhya Pradesh, often called the heart of India, is a destination of extraordinary diversity — from UNESCO-listed temple complexes to some of the country's best wildlife reserves.

The erotic sculptures and architectural brilliance of the Khajuraho temples (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) are among India's most celebrated historical landmarks. The medieval fort town of Orchha along the Betwa River offers a serene step back in time.

For wildlife enthusiasts, Bandhavgarh and Kanha National Parks are among India's best destinations for Bengal tiger sightings, set within lush sal forests that inspired Kipling's The Jungle Book.
