Sariska is best known for being Tiger country and home to a Tiger Project Sanctuary set up in in the former hunting grounds of the royal family of Alwar. The romance of Sariska is never ending. From the time the Buddhists built their monasteries to the time the Pratiharas rulers their temple and, closer down history, to the time the Mughals set up their camps, Sariska is wrapped in a tradition as old as the Aravalli mountain ranges it is situated in.
