Bhutan is no ordinary place. It is the last great Himalayan kingdom shrouded in mystery and magic, where a traditional Buddhist culture embraces global developments. Bhutan is a beautiful country with every inch a picture-postcard scene. The temples and Dzongs are all stunning buildings each highly decorated. In spite of the short time, we will visit mainstream Bhutanese milestones in Paro and Thimphu. In Paro, we visit Rinpung Dzong, national gallery and Kichu Lhakhang, the most established Bhutanese sanctuary before climbing to the unprecedented Taktsang (Tiger's Nest) Monastery the following day. In Thimphu, we visit the portion of its mainstream milestones including the Memorial Chorten, convent Temple, Bhutanese conventional painting school, society, legacy gallery, and others.
