    The Murlen National Park in Mizoram, India lies close to the Indo-Myanmar border and consists of tropical, semi-evergreen and sub-montane forests home to rare species like the hoolock gibbon, white-browed nuthatch, tigers and leopards. The thick forest canopy allows only 1% of sunlight to penetrate and spotting wildlife among the dense foliage of bamboo and orchid trees requires traversing the winding trails through the park.
