The royal couple took a ride in the open jeep, accompanied by senior park officials and was followed by a media throughout the ride, which lasted for nearly one hour.

Both of them will visit a model village near the park, later in the day.

The couple, which arrived here yesterday at around 1800 hrs, was given a red-carpet welcome at the airport by Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi and his wife Dolly Gogoi, who greeted them with a traditional 'muga gamosa' (muga scarf with red motifs). 

They spent the night at the Diphlu River Lodge near the Kaziranga National Park and also took part in a programme on ethnic cultural traditions, including Bihu and 'Jhumur' dance, presented by local artistes in their 

honour.
