Nestled in the eastern Himalayas, Bhutan is a small kingdom roughly the size of Switzerland and fondly referred to as Druk Yul meaning “Land of the Thunder Dragon.” The society is closely knit and draws its values from Buddhist teachings of love and compassion. It is for this reason that Bhutan is able to enjoy serenity over the decades. Bhutanese are a unique race of people, their identity enhanced by the years of self-imposed isolation. The kingdom of Bhutan is an exotic land of high mountains and lush valleys, snow-clad peaks and running springs, a pristine ecology and incredible wealth of flora & fauna. Making a trip to Bhutan with humble respect is an opportunity to experience a Himalayan Buddhist culture |
