Bhutan or 'Druk Yul' – the mythical Land of Peaceful Dragon is as much known for its dramatic land architecture and fabulous bio-diversity as for its rich and colourful cultural heritage Today, when the cultural boundaries in almost every part of the world are steadily diluting, this fascinating Dragon Kingdom is credited to successfully retain its distinct cultural entity in a genuinely original form. Every facet of Bhutanese culture is unique, distinct and different, or say – very special and exotic. Being a staunch Buddhist country, the socio-cultural life, art, crafts and traditions to architecture, every aspect of Bhutan is greatly influenced by religion.
Here the awe-inspiring vales and dales, daunting heights of the countless silvery massifs and towering black mountains, sprawling glaciers, stupendous waterfalls, crystal clear lakes, swift cascading rivers, flamboyant streams, deep gorges and seemingly unending series of beautiful valleys, verdant slopes and vast undulating flower studded Himalayan meadows, dense forests and mysterious snow basins and whispering savannahs, vividly illustrate the varying moods, modes and chores of mother nature. No doubt,This Himalayan wonderland is fast emerging as a favoured destination of the globe trotters.
