Where Wildlife
Comes Home
Abheda Biological Park is Rajasthan's 4th — and Kota's newest — zoological and biological park, inaugurated on 18 December 2021 by Chief Minister Shri Ashok Gehlot and Shri Shanti Dhariwal. Spread across 143 hectares on the historic Nanta Road, it sits just 650 metres from the 13th-century Abheda Mahal.
The park's distinctive "O" shape holds a 1.5 km central walking track flanked by 44 spacious enclosures. Three functional zones — the Main Block, Administrative Block, and Green Belt — each offer a different experience. Construction began in 2016, was completed in 2018, and the park now houses tigers, lions, leopards, bears, wolves, hyenas and dozens of bird species, with more arrivals planned.
The name Abheda derives from Abhayaran — "the forest where animals live fearlessly." True to that spirit, the park is designed as a safe refuge for wildlife in the heart of Hadauti, complementing nearby Mukundara Hills Tiger Reserve as part of Kota's expanding conservation landscape.
Meet the Residents
From big cats to crocodilians, the park houses an impressive and growing collection of wildlife species — many relocated from Jaipur, Udaipur, and Assam.
Coming soon: More wild species including additional big cats, Assam Bears, and a wider variety of birds are being inducted after Central Zoo Authority approvals. The park is in its active growth phase — every visit may reveal something new.
Three Zones, One Experience
The park follows an "O" shaped layout covering 143 hectares, divided into three distinct functional zones.
