    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
