Marvel at the ethereal beauty of Taenaris urania butterfly fluttering amidst lush greenery while opium poppies and corn poppies paint fields with vibrant colors. Delve into India’s rich biodiversity as you encounter Gryllus indicus—the Indian locust—whose rhythmic chirping resonates through tranquil nights.
