If there is tiger in Ranthambhore, there is Leopard in Jhalana! This has been a major plus for Jhalana as unlike anywhere else in the world, you can see leopards so close by.
A decision to start wildlife safari at Jhalana Reserve Forest
was taken couple of years back which put leopard sighting at Jhalana on
the international circuit of wildlife lovers. Located very close to the
bustling city of Jaipur, it is said to be the best site for leopard
sighting.
The
forests, spread over just 24 sq kms on the east of Jaipur, houses a
healthy population of 25 plus leopards that are visible to the tourists
from a distance of mere 10-20 feet.
Apart
from Leopard, Jhalana has other attractions such as Striped Hyna,
Desert Fox, Golden Jackal, Spotted Deer, Sambar deer, Indian Palm Civets etc. This is also a
must visit location for bird watchers, birds includes Indian roller,
European roller, lagger falcons, Common Kestral, Shikra, Serpent Eagle, Vultures,
Indian Pitta, Dusky Eagle Owl, Spotted Owlet etc.

Beyond Jhalana, Jaipur has some superb palaces. Taking their snap in the night is an unique experience. So in this trip make sure, you have a tripod and wide angle lens along with the telescoping one!!
