Bandhavgarh is a unique tiger reserve situated in Vindhya in the state of Madhya Pradesh in India. Though small as compared to Kanha National Park in size, it equals it in the case of floral biodiversity.

The monuments most of them in ruins date two thousand years back. The last dynasty to rule the Bandhavgarh fort was the Baghel Kings Maharajas of Rewa.
Amidst the ruins and rubble roam wild tigers and other animals. The Sesh Shaiyya, on the way up to the fort, is a fairytale-like pond with a reclining Vishnu carved in stone on one side.
