Another very important and must visit place of Gujarat. In fact this is the only place where one gets to view wild Asiatic Lions.
Gujarat state government has take great and care of these beasts and brought them back from extinction. There were just 180 left in 1984 and today there are 411+.
I was planning to visit since 2012 and managed to implement the plan this year in May along with a great photographer friend.
Following are the images from the tip:
