Panna, once synonymous with its diamond mines, has undergone a breathtaking transformation. Today, it’s a shining beacon of hope and resilience, celebrated for its majestic tigers. From losing its entire tiger population in 2009 to now hosting around 80 thriving big cats, Panna Tiger Reserve stands as a conservation triumph—a testament to the passion and dedication of countless individuals who refused to let its story end.Returning to this extraordinary park for the second time this January, I found it even more mesmerizing. The Ken River, gracefully meandering through the reserve, breathes life into diverse landscapes—rugged gorges, dense teak forests, and lush grasslands.
