Bhutan is renowned for having one of the best national parks in the world, with its diverse flora and fauna helping to draw tourists. Jigme Dorji National Park, the second-largest national park in Bhutan with a total area of over 4316 square kilometres, is named for Jigme Dorji Wangchuck, the third king of Bhutan.

This park, which was established in 1974, is embedded with lovely and serene surroundings where visitors from all over the world gather to several species.  It was created in honour of Jigme Dorji Wangchuk, the late Third King of Bhutan. At that time, it was completely engulfing the country's northern region. Later in 1993, following a significant overhaul of the nation's protected area system, it was elevated to the status of the national park, and its perimeter was significantly narrowed to include only the northwestern portion of Bhutan.

The park covers the majority of the Gasa District, which is mountainous and has heights ranging from 4,593 to 24,035 feet (1,400 to 7,326 m). The national park's foundation is its stunning alpine scenery.

Throughout the park's limits, glacial lakes dot the hilly terrain. Several rivers and waterfalls may be found all across the park.

With over 6,500 people and the historic fortifications of Lingshi Dzong and Gasa Dzong, the park also showcases cultural treasures. These historical elements enhance the national park's experiences.

The Blue Floppy is the National Flower, Takin is the National Animal, Cypress is the National Tree, Raven is the National Bird, and many other animals, reptiles, birds, and butterflies add to the park's magnificent views and landscape.

Jigme Dorji National Park is properly referred to as "the trekker's heaven." It is well-known for its breathtaking landscapes and scenery, which are created by the tranquil alpine meadows adorned with lovely flowers, majestic Himalayan mountain peaks, alpine lakes of various colours, herds of blue sheep grazing peacefully alongside yaks, cascading rivers and waterfalls, and lush forest areas shrouded in clouds and mist. The alpine yak herders may also be seen joyfully cheering up the tourists as they herd their yaks while singing beautiful melodies.

There are robust populations of tigers, snow leopards, musk deer, and Asiatic wild dogs in only one park in Bhutan. Additionally, it is the only park in the world where tigers' and snow leopards' habitats have been shown to overlap. The biggest population of Bhutan Takin, a rare goat-antelope species, can be found in this park, which is the sole national park in Bhutan. There are already around 36 mammals, 5 reptiles, 39 butterflies, 328 birds, and 1450 vascular plants recorded in the park, and the number of species is continually growing with new expeditions.

Birdwatchers will enjoy this paradise thoroughly as the park is home to more than 300 bird species.
