Wildlife Of Gujarat >Narayan Sarovar Chinkara Sanctuary.
While
there are Parks and Sanctuaries in Gujarat that are famous and have the neces sary tourist
infrastructures, there are lesser known places that contain interesting wildlife and in
certain cases outstanding habitats which merit a visit for those who want to be away from
the crowds and want to enjoy what a relatively quite place has to offer. These places are
best for a day’s outing and when you are in a big town next to it. Following is a
