This is a rain forest, Western countries don't have those, that's why it's special.

EU, USA, Canada, etc. have a lot of forest per country area, we actually took care of it or at least replanted what was destroyed centuries ago.



Canada has (temperate) rain forest on Vancouver Island. It is also under more or less constant threat of being cut down, some of it already has but a lot of it still standing. If you happen to be in the area it is more than worth taking a hike through Carmanah [1] for a real life Lothlorien/Middle Earth experience.
