The Valley of Flowers is an incredibly beautiful high mountain Himalayan valley located about 600 km from Delhi - India. Its meadows covered with alpine flowers are close to the Nanda Devi National Park.
The rare plants found here are Himalayan sycamore, Himalayan blue poppy and also 45 types of medicinal plants that local people use daily. Very rare animals such as the Himalayan squirrel, the Himalayan baral, the black bear and the snow leopard live here. Of the birds, the most interesting are the yellow-throated, scale-breasted and blue-necked woodpeckers and the coclas pheasant.
A few kilometers from the entrance to the park, near the summer village of Gangrea, is the Lokpal lake. There is the shrine of Hemkund Sahib and the Hindu temple of Lakshman, brother of Ram. The best time to visit is from June to September, and the nearest town is Pulna, 12 km south of the park entrance.
