Trip Introduction
Heartily welcome to the legendary mountain kingdom in the Himalayas, the last Shangri-La - Bhutan. Bhutan is wedged between two Asian giants - India and China, bestowed by nature with an incredible diversity in topography resulting in a wide range of flora and fauna. Bhutan's elevation from a few hundred meters above sea level to among the highest mountains, makes it one of the most diverse countries in terms of topography. Moreover, Bhutan is also recognized by UNESCO as one of 10 centers for bio-diversity, all within a distance of 150 kilometers resulting in sub-tropical climate to Arctic-like climate. Bhutan is the only last remaining country which follows the Vajrayana Buddhism as the state religion.
