Bhutan presents a spectacular natural landscape with snow peaks to the north and green mountains and deep gorges. Many ancient Buddhist monasteries dot the landscape. The Bhutanese are a deeply religious people. Followers of Mahayana Buddhism, their beliefs intricately weave into their daily lives.

The country's relative isolation and unabashed scenic beauty makes it for all practical purposes the last post to paradise. This is a destination that charms the visitor to a never before experience. The kingdom offers a geographical diversity of tropical forests and foothills with elevations of only 300 meters to the south of the country while it peaks at 7000 meters at high Himalayan altitudes. Temperatures vary drastically between day and night and between altitudes.
