Personal highlights

  1. Motithang Takin Preserve: a national park in Thimphu
  2. Takin: Bhutaninfo-icon's national animal, also known as the gnu goat
  3. Appearance: Takins look really unique like a bee stung moose
  4. Endangered: they only occur in the Himalayas over 1,000 meters
  5. Journey: a quick stop outside our ordinary program
