Madhya Pradesh
India's tiger heartland, Madhya Pradesh pairs some of the country's best wildlife safaris with the carved temples of Khajuraho and the lake palaces of Bhopal.
Tiger reserves and forgotten temple towns
Jehan Numa Palace
A 19th-century palace built for the commander-in-chief of the Bhopal state army, this heritage hotel sits on a quiet ridge above the city with sprawling lawns and a genuine sense of old Bhopal. Its bar and colonial-era billiards room are local landmarks.
Kings Lodge
Spread across 40 acres of forest just minutes from the Tala entrance, Kings Lodge houses guests in tribal-art-decorated cottages and stilted units with private balconies overlooking the tree line. In-house naturalists lead evening wildlife talks, and a nature library and watchtower add to the immersive jungle-lodge feel.
Reni Pani Jungle Lodge
One of the few lodges offering walking and canoe safaris rather than only jeep drives, this eco-lodge sits at the edge of Satpura's dense forest. It's built for travellers who want a slower, more immersive wildlife experience.
