Bhutan, “The Last Sangrila”, is closed off for years from the rest of world and looks like the slice of Himalayan heaven. Paro and Thimpu are major cities and are filled with a mixture of historic and gripping sites combined with ever-growing innovative cityscapes all waiting to get explored. In Paro, explore Tiger next monastery and take a leisurely hike to visit Drugyel Dzong, Local Market, Thanka Painting, Art Craft and Ta Dzong- an ancient museum housed at an ancient watchtower. Precede Thimpu to enjoy the less crowded section of Zelukha Nunnery, Tashichho Dzong and the Handicraft Emporium. You further, proceed towards Bhumthang exploring en route Wangdue Phodrang and Trongsa to experience the true heart and soul of Bhutan. You must include a visit to a countryside, ancient heritage sites, small idyllic towns, and timeless landmarks to understand the true Bhutan and villages filled with people whose way of life have remained unchanged for centuries. You will be surprised to learn that the traditional attire still remained the priority choice for Bhutanese people and even for youth.

Although Bhutan is a tiny country, we have contacted very few of wonderful places and heritage sites that it has to offer. Whatever the reason behind the Bhutan tour is, the journey with Bhutan International Treks Pvt. Ltd. is guaranteed to be a fascinating and truly enlightening experience.
