Bhutan
Holidays & Travel Facts

Bhutan, the Land of the Thunder Dragon, is no ordinary place. This is a country where buying cigarettes is illegal, where the rice is red and where chilies aren’t just a seasoning but the entire dish. It’s also a deeply Buddhist land, where men wear a tunic to work, and where Gross National Happiness is deemed more important than Gross National Product. Tourism in Bhutan is also unique.

Trashigang is an interesting town and also useful for launching into a trip in Eastern Bhutan. Click here to read more...
