Bhutan, known as the land of the thunder dragon, secluded for centuries by one of the highest mountain ranges and most difficult terrain in the world, only recently opened its Himalayan doors to the outside world.

For more than 1500 years, a unique culture developed virtually undisturbed resulting in some of the most spectacular architectural, religious and natural sites found today.

Bhutan’s most unique, dominant and striking are it’s:

Dzongs: impressive forts built in the early centuries now housing the legislative and religious central administration for each of Bhutan’s dzongkhag (district). These huge fortresses were built with no architecture and nails. In addition to these are small lhakhangs and monasteries dotted throughout the country, adding more beauty to Bhutan’s majestic scenery. Adorning the inner walls of these buildings is Bhutan’s the beautiful and famous painting.

Bhutan is a peaceful country in the heart of the Himalayas where nature, tradition and Culture are still intact. Bhutan is the only remaining Mahayana Buddhist country is the world.
