Sudhanyakhali Watch Tower - The Vista Point To Spot Royal Bengal Tiger

The Sudhanyakhali Watch Tower, one of the most popular tourist attraction spots in Sundarban; is the place from where you can catch the glimpse of the Royal Bengal Tiger. It is nestled in the Sundarbans National Park in the Indian state of West Bengal. Other than the tiger, tourists can even spot the saltwater crocodile, axis deer and wild boars.

The Watch Tower has the capacity to fit maximum 25 people at a time. It has a freshwater pond adjacent to it where the animals come to drink water. It is this feature which makes the tower ideal for spotting wildlife.
