Question: Namib and Nanda Devi and Valley of Flowers National Parks, are in India?

<P0-S0> The Nanda Devi National Park and Valley of Flowers National Parks is an UNESCO World Heritage Site in Uttarakhand, India. <P0-S1>  It possesses of two core areas about 20km apart, made up by the Nanda Devi National Park and the Valley of Flowers National Park, plus an encompassing Combined Buffer Zone. <SEP> <P1-S0> Nanda Devi is the second highest mountain in India, and the highest located entirely within the country. <P1-S1>  (Kangchenjunga, which is higher, is on the border of India and Nepal.) <P1-S2>  It is the 23rd-highest peak in the world. <P1-S3>  It was considered the highest mountain in the world before computations in 1808 proved Dhaulagiri to be higher. <P1-S4>  It was also the highest mountain in India before 1971 when Sikkim, the state in which Kangchenjunga is located, joined the Republic of India. <P1-S5>  It is part of the Garhwal Himalayas, and is located in the state of Uttarakhand, between the Rishiganga valley on the west and the Goriganga valley on the east. <P1-S6>  The peak, whose name means "Bliss-Giving Goddess", is regarded as the patron-goddess of the Uttarakhand Himalaya. <P1-S7>  In acknowledgment of its religious significance and for the protection of its fragile ecosystem, the peak as well as the circle of high mountains surrounding it—the Nanda Devi sanctuary—were closed to both locals and climbers in 1983. <P1-S8>  The surrounding Nanda Devi National Park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988. <SEP> <P2-S0> The Namib is a coastal desert in southern Africa. <P2-S1>  The name "Namib" is of Nama origin and means "vast place". <P2-S2>  According to the broadest definition, the Namib stretches for more than 2000 km along the Atlantic coasts of Angola, Namibia, and South Africa, extending southward from the Carunjamba River in Angola, through Namibia and to the Olifants River in Western Cape, South Africa. <P2-S3>  The Namib's northernmost portion, which extends 450 km from the Angola-Namibia border, is known as Moçâmedes Desert, while its southern portion approaches the neighboring Kalahari Desert. <P2-S4>  From the Atlantic coast eastward, the Namib gradually ascends in elevation, reaching up to 200 km inland to the foot of the Great Escarpment. <P2-S5>  Annual precipitation ranges from 2 mm in the most arid regions to 200 mm at the escarpment, making the Namib the only true desert in southern Africa. <P2-S6>  Having endured arid or semi-arid conditions for roughly 55–80 million years, the Namib may be the oldest desert in the world and contains some of the world's driest regions. <SEP> <P3-S0> Valley of Flowers National Park is an Indian national park, located in West Himalaya, in the state of Uttarakhand and is known for its meadows of endemic alpine flowers and the variety of flora. <P3-S1>  This richly diverse area is also home to rare and endangered animals, including the Asiatic black bear, snow leopard, musk deer, brown bear, red fox, and blue sheep. <P3-S2>  Birds found in the park include Himalayan monal pheasant and other high altitude birds. <P3-S3>  At 3352 to 3658 meters above sea level, the gentle landscape of the Valley of Flowers National Park complements the rugged mountain wilderness of Nanda Devi National Park to the east. <P3-S4>  Together, they encompass a unique transition zone between the mountain ranges of the Zanskar and Great Himalaya. <P3-S5>  The park stretches over an expanse of 87.50 km and it is about 8 km long and 2 km wide. <P3-S6>  Both parks are encompassed in the Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve (223,674 ha) which is further surrounded by a buffer zone (5,148.57 km). <P3-S7>  This Reserve is in the UNESCO World Network of Biosphere Reserves since 2004.
