See the unique national animal of Bhutan.

The Royal Takin Preserve in Bhutan is a wildlife reserve area for the unique Bhutan takin, the national animal of the country. Originally a mini-zoo, it was converted into a preserve when the animals refused to leave even when set free. Legend has it that the takin was created by a Tibetan saint in the 15th century by combining a goat and a cow. The preserve, located in Thimphu, offers visitors a chance to see these fascinating creatures up close in their natural habitat. It's a must-visit spot for animal lovers and those interested in Bhutanese folklore!
