Bhutan travel guide

Bhutan AT A GLANCE

Prepare your trip to the Land of Happiness with the help of our Bhutan travel guide. Get ready to smile. Smile in the presence of peace – an enchanted bubble in the heart of the Himalayas, between the Indian mountains and Chinese Tibet. In the central part of the country, the whole Bumthang Valley occasionally resonates with the songs of monks praying for the happiness of the Bhutanese. Marvel at the beauty of the Trongsa Dzong fortress, and learn about the weaving techniques of he Sharchops people that live in eastern Bhutan. Smile like Buddha, the omnipresent spiritual guide in the country. Smile at the end of the climb that takes you to the Tiger's Nest Monastery, the iconic temple of the country, a must-see, perched on the cliff, above the Paro Valley, in the west of the country. Smile at every stage of your journey, here in front of the perfect gestures of the archers as they practice, there in front of the pure white of the mountain peaks. Smile now, because we are happy to go to Bhutan, to discover the country where the concept of GNH - Gross National Happiness – was once substituted for that of GNP - Gross National Product.
