Why Visit Bhutan?

16 Unique Reasons Why You Should Visit Bhutan


01: A Unique Tour
One of the best aspects of visiting Bhutan is that it’s a place hardly visited by the tourists. Therefore, the chance of knowing about it even before reaching there is least. As a result, the visit will have a “surprising element” attached to it.

02: A Smiling Country
The warmth of a country depends on the behavior of that country’s people largely. The Bhutanese people are sweet enough to say you ‘good bye’ (it is used to welcome people in Bhutan) with smiles always attached to their lips.

03: Tiger’s Nest – 10,200 feet above
Hanging on a cliff 10,200 feet above the city of Paro, the Tiger’s Nest Monastery was completed in 1692. The monastery was restored after it suffered blazes from a butter lamp. It is believed that Padmasambhava (Guru Rimpoche) flew there on the back of a tiger. It is one of the most sacred places of the country.

04: Takin – The National Animal
The Takin, the national animal of Bhutan is said to have been created by Lama Drukpa Kunley (also known as Divine Madman) by cutting off a goat’s head and attaching it to a cow’s body.

05: Monkees

06: A “Really Hot” Dining

07: No Chain Stores
If you want to give away the addiction of going to Mc Donald’s, Bhutan is the best place to be. You won’t find a single Mc Donald’s, a nice break from your everyday life.

08: No Effect of Recession
The pulse of Bhutan is reflected and seems to be ruled by “Gross National Happiness” and not Gross Domestic Product. The people out here are so happy irrespective of what is happening in the share market. In addition, it seems there will never be a ‘recession’ in their happiness.
