BHUTAN

Discover Bhutan: A Tourist's Paradise of Serenity and Spirituality

Nestled in the eastern Himalayas between India and China, Bhutan—often called the "Land of the Thunder Dragon"—is a carbon-negative kingdom renowned for its commitment to Gross National Happiness, pristine environment, and profound Buddhist heritage. As the world's only country measuring success beyond GDP, it prioritizes sustainable "high-value, low-volume" tourism, ensuring uncrowded trails, unspoiled landscapes, and authentic cultural immersion. For tourists, Bhutan offers breathtaking hikes, ancient monasteries, vibrant festivals, and adrenaline-pumping activities like archery (the national sport) or white-water rafting, all while embracing eco-friendly practices. The best time to visit is March-May (spring blooms and mild weather) or September-November (clear skies for Himalayan views), though year-round appeal lies in its festivals, such as the Paro Tshechu in spring.
