Bhutan Trek

Bhutan often revered as the 'Land of the Thunder Dragon' is still regarded as one the last 'Shangrilas' in the Himalayan region because of its remoteness, i spectacular mountain terrain, varied flora and fauna,and unique ancient Buddhist monasteries. It is in a relatively unexplored pocket of Asia which allows only limited number of travellers to enter the country in order to protect its fragile environment and culture. Bhutan, a purely Buddhist Himalayan Kingdom, is unsurpassed in scenic majesty and vibrant culture. The kingdom shares with Nepal the world's greatest concentration of mountains and living heritage of Buddhist. The fifty minutes flight from Kathmandu to Paro can truly be described as a flight into fantasy. During the flight, you get a firsthand close-up view of Mt. Everest, Mt. Kanchenjunga and other famous peaks. Bi-weekly flights between these two kingdoms have made travel to the long isolated Dragon Kingdom of Bhutan easier and more accessible. It is the only country in the world where Mahayana Buddhism (Buddhism's Tantric form) is the state religion, where western values and concepts have little or no impact, and where all the citizens must wear the national costume. The Bhutanese zealously protect and preserve their culture, traditions, and way of life.
