Travel in Bhutan
Bhutan often reversed as the 'Land of the peaceful Dragon' is still regarded as one of the last "Shangri-La" in the Himalayan region because of its remoteness, it's spectacular mountain terrain, varied flora and fauna and it's unique ancient Buddhist monasteries. It is relatively unexplored pockets of Asia, which allows only limited number of discerning travelers to enter the country with special travel visa permits.

Hidden in the Eastern Himalaya between India and Tibet, this tiny kingdom with a population of less than one million occupies an area about the size of Switzerland. Its boundaries describe a lozenge shape and enclose magnificent mountains, thick forest, crystal-clear streams, imposing monasteries perched on high cliffs and inhabited by happy sturdy people who still seem to live in the 16th century. Most of the people are engaged in agriculture and one sees terraces of green fields, beautiful wooden houses with intricately decorated windows, gaily dressed men herding yaks, women tending to paddy, and red-robed monks wandering round the monasteries.

The lasting impression is one of religious tradition, monasteries, antiquities and national dress. Having never been colonized, the Bhutanese are fiercely independent, proud and know how to respect and save their culture and traditions. They do not mimic the West and imbibe only those ideas which they think are necessary and not contrary to their culture traditions.

For visitors wishing to enter Bhutan by road, the only land entry point is though the southern boarder town of Phuentsholing, boardering West Bengal India.
