If you want to go to the prairie to see the great migration of animals, but worry about the climate, afraid of not having enough holidays, worry about going to the wrong time....... If you don't see the view you want, you can't go wrong to go here.

It's a bit like Africa, even beyond East Africa, it's a wonderful animal world.

Sitting in an open-top jeep you'll see elephants swaggering past you, herds of buffalo, sambar deer, crocodiles, leopards, zebras, giraffes, and wildebeest roaming the grasslands.

This is a country in Southeast Asia, not New Matai, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, few people think of it.

With an area of only 65,000 square kilometers, it covers almost all the essence of Southeast Asian countries.

It is drowned in the list of Southeast Asian tourism fever, beautiful islands, beaches, mountains do not lose Thailand, Buddhist atmosphere does not lose Nepal's wildlife as much as East Africa.

Known as the "Eye of the World", it has a population of just 21 million but is the world's largest donor of corneas, and so far they have helped at least 140,000 people, including China, see the light again.

She is Mark Twain's "pearl of the Indian Ocean", without the strong commercial propaganda of the Maldives, she is known as the "smile" country, and it is also the world's only sea train.
