| Thimphu |
Bhutan cultural tours include an elaborate
historical exploration combined with brilliant landscapes of Thimpu and Paro.
The best time to visit this exotic destination is from late September to late November. A
Bhutan tour can be a combination of sightseeing
as well as short treks. Most Bhutan tour packages
would include all the major attractions as well as short introductions to the
rich cultural heritage of Bhutan. Around seventy two percent of the country is
under forest cover and has been listed as one of the ten bio diversity hot
spots in the world. English is the commonly spoken language and also it is the
medium of education in schools. The national language of the country is
Dzongkha.
In Bhutan, cultural traditions
are given foremost importance. The teachings of Lord Buddha are practiced and
preached as a part and parcel of life. Religious festivals are celebrated with
pomp and splendor. In Bhutan short treks are taken by visitors and tourists are
interested not only in viewing the natural beauty of the country but also to
gain insight into the culture and lifestyle of the people. Those who are
interested in this kind of activity must visit this country anytime between
April and June. The country has many national parks which house endangered
species like the blue sheep, red panda, snow leopards and musk deer. Apart from
the national parks, there are plenty of sanctuaries that protect wildlife. Bhutanese
houses are built closely to take the edge off the wind and cold and are made in
small clusters of five to fifteen houses.
