Previous slideNext slideBhada Community HomestayBeing a guest at the Bhada Community Homestay in the village of Bhada allows you an up-close glimpse of rural village life on the Western Terai. The local people here are ethnic Tharus, a group that originated in India centuries ago and now has a culture, language, cuisine, and other customs that resemble both hill Nepali and North Indian traditions.The Bhada Community Homestay is ideally situated between the Bardiya National Park and the Shuklaphanta National Park, prime wildlife-watching areas of Western Nepal that see fewer visitors than the Chitwan National Park. Travellers who try to get out here can experience a landscape and culture that hasn’t been trampled by tourism. Wildlife-spotting activities in the parks are authentic, following local people's paths when navigating the area, and you’re unlikely to see many other tourists.Featured in BBC
