Tips And Tricks
- Don't try to memorise all 549 points — learn the 86 National Parks by name first, since those are what competitive exams actually test, then treat the Wildlife Sanctuary dots as regional density context.
- Hemis National Park (Jammu & Kashmir) is India's largest by area at 3,350 km² — mark it first as a size benchmark, then place the rest relative to it.
