<b>Cuc Phuong National Park, Vietnam</b>

Cuc Phuong National Park is located 160

kilometres south west of Hanoi. It is the

first of Vietnam’s nine national parks to be

established, and it contains over 200

square kilometres of rainforest. Tourists go

there to study butterflies, visit caves, hike

mountains and look at the 1,000-year-old tree. The best time to visit the

park is during the dry season, from October to April, when the rainy

season is over.

<b>Nairobi National Park, Kenya</b>
