Bhutan
A land of high peaks and inviting valleys, Bhutan, famously, does things differently. Whether it’s banning plastic bags, measuring ‘Gross National Happiness’ or perching improbable, spectacular monasteries on cliff faces, this is a country that woos visitors with its perfect mix of stunning landscapes, fine architecture and offbeat charm. Bhutan’s enlightened approach to tourism and conservation means that visitors are both welcomed and quickly get a feel for the ‘real’ country: time spent in Thimphu, the capital, or the fertile lands that surround the city gives a chance to meet friendly locals, visit monasteries and soak up this country’s truly extraordinary atmosphere.
