Sandwiched between Tibet in the north and India in the three sides; and popularly know as as the 'Land of the Thunder Dragon' and the 'Last Shangri-La', the state of Bhutan offers a mesmerizing and unspoilt cultural and natural grandeur. Predominantly Vajrayana Buddhism being the state religion, Hinduism is second-largest religion mostly followed by the Nepali speaking Bhutanese in the southern Bhutan. Bhutanese landscape is characterized by rugged terrain and steep mountain valleys from subtropical plains in the south through temperate zone to the Sub-alpine Himalayas exceeding 7000 meters. The culturally and religiously rich Bhutan remained entirely disconnected from the rest of the world until 1960s. Remarkable is that very careful attention has been paid by the Bhutanese government in preserving and promoting Bhutanese culture now also.
