Sultanpur Bird Sanctuary

Overview

Located around 15 kilometres from the city center of Gurgaon, the Sultanpur Bird Sanctuary is home to over 250 migrant and resident bird species. The sanctuary has been a protected area since being declared a national park in 1989. Visited by bird lovers from surrounding cities, the Sultanpur Bird Sanctuary is the ideal place to spot some rare and exotic birds species like, Black Francolin, White-throated Kingfisher, Spot Billed Duck, Purple Sunbird, Painted Stork and Gray Francolin. During the winter migration season, the park becomes a popular picnic spot for locals and is considered to be the best time to visit the sanctuary. Visitors can hire guides to help sight and identify the birds and binoculars also can be rented.

Prayer Facilities

Muslim tourists may not find prayer rooms or a masjid inside the Sultanpur Bird Sanctuary; however they may be able to offer their prayers at the guest house located within the bird sanctuary premises. Those unable to offer their prayers at the sanctuary will be able to find prayer facilities in the city of Gurgaon, since it is known to house a couple of mosques frequented by its locals and tourists alike. Chauma Masjid and Anjuman Masjid are two prominent mosques in the city.

Halal Food

Tourists visiting the Sultanpur Bird Sanctuary have the option of getting the picnic package or just the entry ticket to see the bird sanctuary. Those getting the picnic package could opt for the vegetarian meal if they are concerned about the Halal status of the non-vegetarian meal. Muslim tourists will however be able to locate a number of Halal restaurants in the city of Gurgaon.
