Bhutan is the last Mahayana Buddhist Kingdom, and the teachings of this school of Buddhism are a living faith among its people. Spirituality exists even in the urban centers where the spinning of prayer wheels, the murmur of mantras and the glow of butter lamps in the houses are still important features of their every day life.

Bhutan’s unique architecture is one of the most striking physical features; the colour of house and buildings is a distinct source of aesthetic pleasure. The Dzongs, which are 300 to 400 hundred years old, are built on a scale without the help of any drawings and hammering a single nail.

Paintings are another aspects of Bhutan’s culture and they depict the spiritual depth of Bhutanese life. Bhutan also boasts an unparalleled wealth in its cottage industry. Its fine handicrafts of wood and bamboo, ornaments of gold and silver and highly developed weaving skills represent an advanced art form. Various cultural trips into Bhutan introduce visitors to the unique aspects of Bhutanese culture, including sacred masked dance festivals and pilgrimage sites.

Place of Tourist Interest
The more I see of the Bhutanese, the more I am pleased with them. The common people are good-humored, down right and I think, thoroughly trusty. The statesman have some of the art which belongs to their profession. They are the best built race of men I ever saw.”
