Located in the central Himalayas in northern India (Sikkim), Kanchenjunga National Park is a unique diversity of plains, valleys, lakes, glaciers and spectacular snow-capped mountains covered with ancient forests, including the world's third highest peak, Kanchenjunga. This mountain and a number of natural elements (caves, rivers, lakes, etc.) are associated with mythological stories and worshipped by the indigenous people of Sikkim. The sacred significance of these stories and customs, integrated with Buddhist beliefs, forms the basis of Sikkimese identity.
