BHUTAN – THE LAST BUDDHIST KINGDOM

The Royal Government of Bhutan’s policy is to restrict tourism to little over 5,000 visitors a year in order to maintain the country’s traditions and wealth of bio-diversity. The rich Himalayan flora and fauna, snow capped peaks and beautiful rural landscapes leave a lasting impression upon the minds of those who are fortunate enough to visit this last Buddhist Kingdom.

At certain times of year festivals draw thousands of local people, some of whom walk for days, to see the masked dances or tsechu performed in the courtyards of ancient dzongs and monasteries.  The ideal way to witness these festivals is as part of a tour or trekking holiday.
