Click here to place a Booking
Bhutan is unique blend of the old and the new. Here is a country that is slowly opening up to the modern world, but still retaining a fine balance with its ancient traditions. Bhutan is often described as a unique, deeply spiritual and mystical kingdom.
Bhutan’s unique cultural heritage has remained intact and untarnished over the centuries, and today, one can witness many of those cultural traditions as they are practiced on a daily basis. They continue to have tremendous value and significance in the life of the people of this remarkable nation.
Displaying a great sense of innovation, the people have made each dzong(fortress architecture), temple and monastery a unique creation that was designed and built to harmonize with the environment, and to fulfill a certain function.
Bhutanese textiles are renowned for their distinctive colors and patterns, which have been inspired by nature. The use and contemplation of colors and pattern in art and craft also have religious significance, as they form an integral part of worship and practice.
