The
Kingdom of Bhutan is wedged between India and China along
the lofty mountains of the eastern Himalayas, between
longitude 88°45' and 92 degree10' east and latitude 26
degree40' and 28degree15'. With an area of approximately
46,500 sq. kilometers, Bhutan is comparable to Switzerland
in both size and topography, being largely mountainous. The
country with these borders form a giant staircase, from a
narrow strip of land in the south at an altitude of 10,000
feet, up to some of the unclimbed Himalayan peaks on Earth.
For centuries, the people and the rulers have vehemently
protected their independence and Bhutan is one of the few
countries that escaped the yoke of colonization. The
independent state of Bhutan today is one of the last
bastions of Mahayana Buddhism. Thus, Bhutan today remains
one of the most sought after destinations in the world of
tourism and Travel.
Bhutan embarked on the path of socio-economic development
only in the 1960's and is now one of the fastest developing
nations in Asia. The impressive strides in the development
sector have not come at the cost of the culture and
environment. With more than 70% of the total area covered by
forests and diverse flora and fauna, the country has been
declared as "One of the Ten Global Hotspot" in the World. In
cities and hamlets across the kingdom, the people live a way
of life that is rich in tradition and steeped in the age-old
system of hospitality. The pristine state of environment;
the vibrant tradition and culture and the kindness of the
people are some of the long-lasting impressions that
visitors to the kingdom have cherished after the stay in the
kingdom. The country has also not shied from the good that
modernity has to offer. It is this ability of the Bhutanese
people that fascinates the visitor. For instance, a sick
Bhutanese can either go to see a doctor trained in best
medical schools of India or a traditional medicine
practitioner well versed in the country's own medicine. The
intermingling of the east and the west has produced a
fascinating visage that makes a visit to Bhutan one of the
most memorable ones.
