There is an occult relationship between man and the jungle. Even though the enormity of a forest can make a person f small, the truth is that everything around is alive. And then, throw in the wild beasts. Everyday at Suján Sher Bagh, an exquisite safari camp that nestles on a border of Ranthambore National Park, one is face to face with this sublime relationship between man and nature.
The Sujan family has played an active role in the conservation effort at Ranthambore since 1974 and continues to do so. The camp was born out of the family's love for the forest and a deep desire to embrace and melt into it. A 1920s-style safari camp with a nod to the British Raj and a chic repository of Africana style, embellished with a treasure trove of family heirlooms, Suján Sher Bagh is one of the best properties under the auspices of Relais & Chateaux, worldwide.
