Bhutan often revered as
the "land of the Peaceful Dragon"
Bhutan often revered as the "land of the
Peaceful Dragon" regarded as one of the
last Shangri-La in the Himalayan region
because of it's remoteness, it's
spectacular mountain terrain, varied
flora and fauna and it's unique ancient
Buddhist monasteries. It is one of the
reactively unexplored pockets of Asia
which allow only limited number of
discerning travelers to enter the
country with a special visa permits.
Bhutan's isolation has resulted in its
culture and traditional remaining much
the same for many hundreds of years. Our
introductory 8 days Western Bhutan
Culture tour will be through the
stunning beautiful alpine valley's
flanked by steep slopes and terraced
pastures dotted with temple. The
highlight of tour will be visits to
Simtokha Dzong within the tiny capital
township of Thimpu and the Taktsang
Monastery that clings to a sheer 3,000
foot rock face cliffs.
Festival (Tscechus) are held in Bhutan
throughout the year at different
locations. These festivals are
celebration of faith, legends, myths and
history of Bhutanese in ancient rituals
of colorful dance and music. To co-incide
a visit to Bhutan during the festive
season would be an added bonus and even
better way to observe the unique
culture. |
