Bhutan
Bhutan is a remote independent kingdom in the eastern Himalayas and the last bastion of the Tibetan Buddhist culture and religion in its purest form. Despite opening up to tourism in the late '70's it has managed to minimize the effect of outside influences and the country is virtually untouched, in terms of the environment, religion, architecture and lifestyle. Bhutan has the youngest reigning monarch in the world, King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, who guards Bhutan's culture and national identity fiercely. The country has a policy to limit the yearly foreign visitors. Please Contact OlaTrek.Com to know the permit and other requirements
It is a remarkable country and this journey offers the opportunity to see not only Bhutan's exquisite Himalayan scenery but to experience its rich and ancient traditions in Thimphu, the capital and Paro, its second largest town. Few people have the privilege of experiencing Bhutan and in the light of the fragility of such a small nation with traditional culture.
