The Last Shangri-La

Hidden deep in the folds of the great Himalayan mountains for centuries, Bhutan opened its doors to tourism only in 1974. With a population of about 700,000 people living in close harmony with nature, Bhutan has evolved a unique identity derived largely from its rich religious and cultural heritage.

Today, the world is discovering the many exotic aspects of this mystical kingdom, where Gross National Happiness matters more than Gross Domestic Product.

A Kingdom of Culture

Bhutan is no longer a hermit kingdom. More than 100,000 tourists now travel to Bhutan annually, drawn by the kingdom's reputation for peace, tranquility, and its unique Buddhist culture.

According to Lonely Planet, Bhutan was ranked as the best country to visit, above England and North Macedonia. Visitors are also drawn by their admiration for the Royal Family, as Bhutan remains one of the few royal kingdoms in the world.

The World's Only Carbon-Negative Country

Bhutan has stepped onto the international stage as the first and only carbon-negative country in the world. With 72% of the country covered by forest (mandated by the constitution), Bhutan absorbs more carbon than it produces.

In 2016, volunteers set a Guinness World Record by planting 49,672 trees in just one hour. Nature enthusiasts visiting Bhutan often leave their memories in the form of tree plantation.
