Things to see in Nepal: Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve

Nepal's premier birding destination, with 280 recorded bird species, consists of the floodplain of Sapta- Koshi, the largest of Nepal's rivers, close to the border with India. The 175 square kilometres of the reserve contain a broad expanse of open water created by a dam which, together with a patchwork of marsh, lagoon, sandbank, mudflat and arable land, creates one of North Asia's finest wetland habitats that attracts many migrant birds.

It is also home to wild buffalo and blue bull, while the river contains Gangetic dolphin - all overlooked by the world's fifth highest peak, Makalu (8,463 metres).
