There are few cars, and no savage deforestation: the purity of the air and the quality of the environment is striking for the visitor. Due to the implementation of strict regulations, the kingdom has managed to preserve its wonderful scenery almost completely. Forest still covers almost three quarters of the country, and wide open spaces, shaped by man in the valleys, alternate with high isolated ground, where prayer flags floating in the wind are the only witnesses to civilisation. The snowy mountain tops of the Himalayas are never very far away, and the geographical terracing of the country, which rises the further one moves away from the Indian border, lends it an enchanting scenery.
