LUCKNOW, June 16 -- Breaking from the norm of monsoon closures, the Uttar Pradesh Eco-Tourism Board has decided to keep the Mohammadi range of Dudhwa national park open during the rainy season. While the rest of the park will stay closed, this 24-kilometre stretch will remain accessible, offering tourists a new wildlife experience during the monsoon. Tourist season in world famous Dudhwa National Park (DNP) alongwith Kishanpur Sanctuary, Katarniaghat and also Pilibhit Tiger Reserve (PTR) this year came to a close on Sunday after the DTR officials put a ceremonial lock on the main gate of the Dudhwa base camp. "This 24-kilometre Mohammadi stretch will offer a completely new experience," Prakhar Mishra, director of tourism, said. "Tourists will not only witness rich biodiversity, over 25 tigers, deer, antelopes, but also explore a safari trail that's never been accessible during this season." The board sees this period as an untapped opportunity for nature-based tourism, rather than a logistical challenge. Tourists can also enjoy the Vistadome train journey between Bichia and Mailani, which passes through the core areas of Dudhwa's connected sanctuaries....
