Tripura may be a small northeastern state, but it’s rich in biodiversity and home to some of the most scenic and lesser-explored wildlife sanctuaries in India. Two notable sanctuaries—Sepahijala and Trishna—offer visitors a chance to immerse themselves in lush green forests, rare species, and tranquil surroundings far from the usual tourist trails.

Sepahijala Wildlife Sanctuary, located near Agartala, is a blend of zoological park, botanical garden, and natural reserve. Spread over 18 square kilometers, it houses a diverse array of flora and fauna, including clouded leopards, spectacled monkeys, and various species of birds. The sanctuary also has boating facilities and a lake, making it a fun outing for families.

Trishna Wildlife Sanctuary, located in the South Tripura district, is known for its vast expanses of grasslands, water bodies, and rich biodiversity. It's a haven for bison (Indian Gaur), deer, and migratory birds. With its serene landscapes and eco-tourism potential, Trishna is perfect for nature lovers and wildlife photographers seeking solitude and raw beauty.

These sanctuaries reflect Tripura’s quiet commitment to conservation and offer an ideal escape for those wanting to explore India’s untamed northeastern wilderness.
