An indulgent cultural experience

Bhutan: A time standstill travel experience
Hardly impacted by the 21st century, today, Bhutan is an equipoise of ancient and modernity. Here, age-old traditions are still profound as they were when “Padmasambhava,” a revered Buddhist master first ascended the summit of the Tiger's Nest monastery “Taktshang Goemba”, as early as the 8th century that represents itself as the cultural icon of the country, is a travel back in time.
Encounter indigenous inhabitants going around temples and stupas, offering butter lamps draped in their elegant national costumes are common sights. Yet you are never far away from the country’s one-of-a-kind ancient mystical marvels to unplug. The timeless “Tshechus” festivals in Bhutan happening with imposing backdrop views bags for country’s colorful cultural titbits -provides a Mecca for those seeking cultural high.
Into the exotic
Seeking spiritual high
Chary foot catch
Home to some of the highest unscathed peaks of the world, serene countryside dotted with time-honored homesteads, age-old monasteries and temples, claret-clad Buddhist monks, fluttering prayer flags, and fast-flowing rivers, the tales of supernatural forces, crazy gods, and ancient mysticism are the fabrics of everyday life in Bhutan.
Here, stories of highly learned masters having magical powers of precognition and healing and how monk votaries discovered the key to life and semi-immortality come thick and fast on the ground on your travels that often bewilders but never bores
Trekking in Bhutan is undoubtedly Bhutan's top attraction offering breathtaking views of some of the virgin Himalayas of the world with only a few or no visitors accompanied by the sounds of the chiming with yak bells.
With trek routes spread across the country varying in the magnitude of difficulty from easy day treks to some grueling 27-day treks such as the Snowman trek in Bhutan includes traversing 11 high mountain passes of over 4,000m, setting you on trails only used by yak herders and remote communities. It has something impressive to offer anyone willing to endure.
Ally with Wild
If you love nature, you will revere Bhutan. Custodian of greater biological resources of nearly 5,500 vascular plant species, including more than 500 orchids and 50 different species of Rhododendron and celebrates the regional diversity of this species through rhododendron festival in Bhutan in April every year in addition to 350 species of mushrooms, 600 species of ferns, and countless herbs and wildflowers.
That’s not all; blanketed in myth, it is also a land of feral anomalies. You may witness men stripped bare at the naked dance festival in Bhutan seen as a source of peace and hope for the locals, one of the things that make Bhutan one of the most exciting destination today.
At the onset of the travel, almost all travelers first encounter Paro valley, the adventure capital of Bhutan in the western region. This expansive, prolific valley culminates in the overhangs of the country's second-highest peak, Mount Jumolhari, regarded as a transcendental peak.
Outside Paro, reclined atop granite rock is one-of-a-kind Taktshang, the Tiger's Nest Monastery, eminently a revered Buddhist pilgrimage site. Standing some staggering 1000m above its valley floor; it radiates beauty and grace at every glance, demands an arduous ascent!
Legend has it that Guru Padmasambhava, a highly commended figure in Bhutan for introducing Buddhism in the country, arrived at this holy site from Tibet- again, on the back of a Tigress!
A quick virtual tour of Bhutan:
Timeless Bhutan, naturally an adventure, astounding mythical landmarks and mountain passes vistas tantalizing distant peaks, that almost surrounds the country await your discovery!
Eastwardly of Paro, a, hour long journey is the capital Thimphu, the cosmopolitan city of Bhutan swaggering with its leviathan bronze Buddha statue that affords a view of its valley below and other such as the much glorified “Takin,” the national animal of Bhutan, Philatelists’ own, the Bhutan postal museum, and the Royal Textile Academy. The latter highlights the country’s rich, living tradition of weaving culture.
