Bhutan is
perhaps the
world’s most
exclusive
tourist
destination,
it only
opened for
tourism in
1974, after
the
coronation
of the
present
King. The
country
still
retains its
old world
charm and a
visit here
encompasses
ancient
temples,
monasteries
and stupas
which dot
the
countryside,
prayer flags
fluttering
above
farmhouses
and on the
hillsides,
lush
forests,
rushing
glacial
rivers, and
perhaps most
important of
all the warm
smiles and
genuine
friendliness
of the
people. Of
course, the
highlight of
this trip is
the
extravagant
and vibrant
festival
which takes
place in the
country’s
largest
monastery,
The Thimpu
Tshechu.
