Overview

Bhutan

Surrounded by Tibet and India, Bhutan cultivates its mystery by scrupulously controlling access to its territory. That alone makes this little Himalayan kingdom worth a visit! Adventure and trekking are on the program for this destination, and although it is expensive, the change of scenery is breathtaking; from the snowy mountain tops to the lush green jungle. Further south, passing through interminable forests, you will find the Buddhist population who have always led a very traditional way of life. On this little known land marked by numerous religious festivals, you will find what is known as ?dzongs', majestic monastery fortresses of unique architecture.

Our Editorial team's advice

Try to make your trip to Bhutan coincide as far as is possible with one of the festivals taking place in the dzongs in the spring and the autumn.
In Bhutan, the traditions, customs, architecture and most of the events are based on Buddhism. Therefore, before leaving, it would be a good idea to inform yourself of the cultural bases of this religion.
