Bhutan, also known locally as Drukyul (Land of the Thunder Dragon), is one of the most exotic destinations. Located to the north of India and south of Tibet, it is the last Mahayana Buddhist Kingdom, with a breathtaking Himalayan landscape as a backdrop. The country was never colonised, thus survived the influence of accelerated and thoughtless modernisation; which makes it one of the rarest and most unique of travel destinations.
With a population of little more than 600,000, you will experience a very different lifestyle... Bhutan has maintained a very traditional culture, yet has adapted what it needs from the modern world.
The size of Switzerland, it is a country of rolling hills and towering crags, with only small patches of cultivation and very little deforestation, rich in flora and fauna.
