Genral Infomation about
Bhutan
Due to the Royal Government’s far-sighted policy
to preserve the countries pristine environment and its culture,
the harmful effects to industrialization and mass tourism on
the environment and the traditional lifestyle of Bhutanese have
been carefully avoided. This makes Bhutan a truly unique destination.
An unspoiled country with majestic mountains, a unique cultural
heritage preserved for many centuries, an architectural style
like no other, a landfill of warm hearted and friendly people,
reveals a true paradise in the lost era of the present century.
