* **Flora and Fauna**: The region is famous for its rhododendron forests, orchids, and alpine meadows. Wildlife in the broader district includes the elusive snow leopard, red panda, Himalayan black bear, and barking deer. * **High-Altitude Reserves**: While there are no formal, fenced city parks, the entire landscape functions as a natural reserve, protected by the local communities and the forest department. The journey to Tawang passes near the Eagle's Nest Wildlife Sanctuary, famous for its birdwatching.
