Overview
Hidden away by the mighty Himalaya, the isolated kingdom of Bhutan is an unforgettable place to visit. The landscape is stunning, with steep forested hills and misty mountains rising from fast-flowing rivers. However, it’s the spellbinding culture that makes this country truly unique, boasting several colorful annual festivals of Bhutan.
At these festivals, hundreds gather to see monks, dressed in brightly colored robes, perform ritual dances. For several days there are masked dances and prayer meetings, and a wonderful carnival atmosphere prevails.
Those embarking upon spring departures will visit the Paro Festival, which culminates with the unfurling of a giant Thanka, whilst in June you will visit the lesser-known Nimalung and Kurjey festivals. You will also have time to see all the main sights in and around Paro and Thimpu, as well as the superb Dzongs (fortresses) that dot the valleys and hilltops.
