Chitwan National Park
We arrived Thursday at Chitwan National Park in Nepal.  Having crossed the border we felt we were entering a magical place, thus further reassuring our decision to cut the India leg short.
Most of the tourists come here on a package deal through agencies from Katmandu or Pokhara and stay 2 nights with 3 days activities. Rather than sign up, we headed straight here and planned on bargaining with hard cash – it worked!Â
We immediately fell in love with the place and set about finding some accommodation. We went to a few recommended by the Lonely Planet, and settled for Chitwan Tiger Camp because of its river view. The haggling was easy and we secured our accommodation for a mere 500 rupees (£3.50) per double room per night, a bargain. To put this into perspective, we had budgeted £20 per night.
You will see from the pictures how peaceful this place is. After the hustle and bustle of India, we needed to re-charge our batteries, and have decided to stay a at least a week.
