Bhutan Travel and Destination Guide
OVERVIEW
For much of the twentieth century the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan was all but forgotten by the world; indeed, in a country where television has only been allowed since 1999, the twentieth century bypassed much of Bhutan. A land of deep valleys and dzong (fortresses) perched on precarious peaks, it is one of the most isolated and least developed nations in the world. Its continued isolation is no longer an accident: Bhutan's traditional culture is strictly protected and visitors carefully regulated. In the only country in the world where tobacco sale is banned and the capital has no traffic lights, the opportunity to experience a place time forgot isn't a vacation, it's a privilege.
