Cat Tien National Park

Although Cat Tien National Park suffered from chemical bombs during the Vietnam War, the forest has very much recovered. Today it is one of the few parks in Southeast Asia that still holds the near-extinct Javan rhinoceros. It also has some 360 species of birds, attracting bird watchers from all over the world. In addition, Cat Tien National Park has some 440 species of butterflies.

In addition to the natural heritage, Cat Tien National Park has been discovered to hold cultural relics. Archaeologists have uncovered evidence that it used to be a pilgrimage site during the Funan and Champa period, as ancient religious artifacts have been found there.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
