Nawabganj
Bird Sanctuary -
km from Lucknow, on the Lucknow-Kanpur Highway, the Nawabganj Bird
Sanctuary is a seasonal home of rare Siberian migratory birds. Some of the
birds that make their way across the continent to get here are pigeons,
the common teal, pochard, shoveler, purple moor hen and parakeet. The best
season to spend a few days here is between October and March.
Dewa Sharief
A shining example of Hindu-Muslim unity, Deva Sharief, 25 km from Lucknow,
is a religious shrine. The tomb of Syed Haji Waris Ali Shah is here.
During the months of October and November, the Deva Mela is held, which
attracts thousands of devotees from all over the country.
Dudhwa
National Park
The thick sal forests and grassy lowlands -- typical Terai landscape -- of
Dudhwa National Park is home to unusual animal species. The Sarda river
meanders along the border of this park and the Neora and Sohel river run
through creating slushy marshland frequented by the swamp deer. Situated
238 km from Lucknow in the North Lakhimpur-Kheri district, this national
park's star attraction is the Royal Bengal tiger. About 100 tigers are
believed to still roam this region. The Indian rhino was also introduced
here to save it from extinction. Leopards, elephants, bears, gharial,
crocodile, and spotted deer inhabit the thick forests too.
