Bhutan

The Bhutanese culture is one of the oldest, most carefully guarded and well preserved cultures in the world. Known to the natives as "Druk Yul' or the Land of the Peaceful Thunder Dragon, Bhutan is nestled in the lap of the Himalayas and offers abundant forests, majestic snow-capped mountains, breathtaking scenic beauty and a unique culture and lifestyle.

All Bhutanese art-dance, drama and music-is steeped in Buddhism. The paintings are not produced for tourists, but for religious purposes; festivals are not quaint revivals, but living manifestations of a national faith; and almost all art, music and dance represents the struggle between good and evil. You will see these traditions as well as exquisite Buddhist monasteries, carved wooden houses and the extraordinary crafts of the people.
