Welcome to the ‘Land of the Thunder Dragon’, where natural landscapes are untouched and ancient culture is cherished. Sheltered from the rest of the world, high up in a nook of the Himalayas, the Kingdom of Bhutan holds many mysteries to travellers, slowly revealing its unique identity.

This is a country where forest-filled valleys give way to mountain peaks that soar so high they seem to form the roof of the world - where the rice is red and chillies are a main ingredient, not just a seasoning. Vast mountainsides are crowned with imposing fortress monasteries, where colourful prayer flags can be seen fluttering in the wind and where pilgrims flock to be part of vibrant festivals.
The undulating terrain also makes Bhutan a wonderful destination for adventure, including trekking, mountain biking and fishing. While naturally majestic, much of Bhutan’s charm owes itself to a population whose pride, Buddhist faith and values rooted in tradition have combined to create a national character unlike anywhere else in the world. This, after all, is a country where development is measured not in economic growth but in Gross National Happiness, a term first coined by Bhutan’s Dragon King in 1972.
Bhutan is a year-round destination, with the most popular times to visit falling between March to May and October to November, when rainfall is low and the weather is at its most pleasant. Spring brings mild temperatures and blooming wildflowers across the valleys, while the winter months offer clear blue skies, crisp air and occasional snowfall, especially at higher elevations.
