Protected by the mighty Himalayas, Bhutan is known as the last Shangri-La. It may be the most mysterious of all the Himalayan kingdom because it has been isolated from the rest of the world until relatively recent times. The sacred heritage of Buddhist culture practiced by the Bhutanese people has been intact for centuries. Bhutan is an example of environmental preservation and conservation with many pure forests and rivers unpolluted by modern industry or consumerism. Visitors can trek, enjoy the culture, many intriguing religious festivals, green hills and valleys, snow-clad mountainous scenery, and unique architecture. Citizens of the country are only allowed to wear colorful traditional national clothing. Visitors are excluded from this rule. Each season of the year has its special scenic and festival attraction for travelers. Bhutan is truly an unforgettable destination for a spiritual experience.
The Kingdom of Bhutan (DRUK YUL , Land of the Thunder Dragon), was only opened to tourists in limited numbers from 1974. This Himalayan Buddhist Kingdom is proud of its geographical diversity ranging from 100 m in the tropical south to the 7554 m Kula Kangri on the mountainous Tibetan border. It is an exotic land of High Mountains and lush valleys, snow-clad peaks and clear running springs, a pristine ecology and an incredible wealth of wildlife. Hidden in the eastern Himalayas between India and Tibet, this sparsely populated country is the last surviving Mahayana Buddhist State and The Last Paradise on Earth. Bhutan- the last paradise on the earth reflects age-old religion, culture, arts & architecture in its golden peaks in the background of deep green valley and hillside. Bhutan is very rich at Himalayan flora and fauna. Nearly three quarters of the total area covered by Jungle. |
