Bishazari Tal, meaning 'Twenty Thousand Lakes,' is a serene oxbow lake formed from the Rapti River. It is a haven for birdwatchers, with sightings of kingfishers, storks, and migratory ducks. Visitors can take a traditional dugout canoe ride across the calm waters, surrounded by dense forest and occasional glimpses of crocodiles basking on the banks. The lake's tranquil setting offers a quiet escape from the main safari routes, making it perfect for nature photography and relaxation.
