Abheda Biological Park

Abheda Biological Park is Rajasthan's fourth and Kota's newest zoological and biological park, inaugurated on December 18, 2021. Spread across 143 hectares on Nanta Road near the historic 13th-century Abheda Mahal, the park houses over 75 animals including tigers, lions, leopards, bears, wolves, hyenas, and more than 125 bird species. Approved by the Central Zoo Authority, it features an O-shaped layout with a 1.5 km central walking track and 44 enclosures.

Visitors can explore a spacious wildlife park with large naturalistic enclosures housing big cats, carnivores, herbivores, reptiles, and diverse bird species. The park offers a 1.5 km walkable central track flanked by 44 enclosures, e-cart rides for comfortable viewing, and designated selfie spots with animal monuments. The green belt zone provides excellent birdwatching opportunities with over 125 recorded species. Facilities include restrooms, drinking water, seating areas, and ample parking.

Inaugurated on December 18, 2021 by Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and Minister Shanti Dhariwal. Construction began in 2016 and was completed in 2018. The name 'Abheda' derives from 'Abhayaran', meaning 'the forest where animals live fearlessly'. Located just 650 meters from the 13th-century Abheda Mahal built by Maharaj Ummed Singh.

The park serves as a safe refuge for wildlife in the Hadauti region, complementing nearby Mukundara Hills Tiger Reserve as part of Kota's expanding conservation landscape. It represents Rajasthan's commitment to wildlife conservation and environmental education.
