Thinking of taking your kids to a magic kingdom? Forget about Disney – and take them to Bhutan instead. The Land of the Thunder Dragon is one of the last frontiers in the Himalayas, one that is filled with mysticism, wisdom and awe-inspiring majesty.
Bhutan’s social fabric is woven out of myth and legend, music and dance, making it one of the most evocative and exotic storytelling cultures in the world.
Learn about Drukpa Kunley, the mad monk of Bhutan, and his flaming thunderbolt of wisdom. Hike up to Tiger’s Nest, and discover the legend of the flying tigress. Sway in time to the plaintive notes of the Bhutanese horn and dance to the beat of the Cham dances that take place during important lunar transits, as the monks dress up in elaborate costumes, headgear and masks, to drive the demons away.
Ride the rapids down thunderous rivers as you raft the white waters near Punakha, or traverse the country on the Trans-Bhutan Trail on foot or bicycle, experiencing the incredible charm of its Himalayan hamlets and the generous spirit of the local folk. As the sound of a sacred gongs echoes through the mountains, pause for a moment and soak up the serenity that surrounds you. Discover Bhutan – one momentous experience at a time.
