The country is nearly divided equally into two by the Black Mountain Range with the land running down through the densely forested ridges and fertile, densely populated valleys to the low foothills that meet the Duars Plain. Permanent snowfields and glaciers are found high in the Himalayas. Major Cities (pop. est.); Thimphu 30,000, Phuntsholing 10,000 (1993). Land Use; forested 66%, pastures 6%, agricultural-cultivated 3%, other 25% (1993). CLIMATE: The densely populated valleys of Bhutan have a temperate climate, while the country as a whole has three climatic zones. (1.) The Duars Plain has a subtropical climate characterized by high humidity and heavy rainfall. (2.) The central belt of flat valleys is characterized by cool winters and hot summers with moderate rainfall while (3.) the high valleys have cold winters and cool summers.

    Extractions: Click for details. Click here for info Many countries proclaim the uniqueness of their traditions, which often are artificially preserved for tourists only. But in Bhutan, tradition is real: The visitors can see it, feel it. In a world where a thick cloak of globalization has all but smothered distinctive heritages, this self-reliant kingdom proudly stands alone. Arts, ceremonies and festivals in Bhutan are not remnants of a bygone age. Arts and crafts are practised and, ceremonies and festivals are performed because they continue to have a religious and spiritual significance. As such, they are the manifestations of a living culture. Our Bhutanese guide with in-depth knowledge of local culture will help you to experience and understand the authentic Bhutanese way of life. Drive from one valley town to another visiting temples, monasteries, dzongs, isolated villages, and the people. This trip is a wonderful immersion into Bhutanese culture, where daily life is itself a form of art.

    Extractions: Duration: 12-21 days. Dates: Year round. From $3,000 Bhutan...Land of the Thunder Dragon. This Himalayan Buddhist Kingdom remains, at the dawn of the 21th century, known by many, visited by few. Somehow this land of high mountains, wooded valleys, kings, princesses and anchorites has eluded the vicissitudes that have wreaked such havoc on so many once remotes corners of the earth. It is a privilege for us to guide here. Bhutan has wisely limited the number of tourists it lets in each year. Likewise certain monasteries and regions remain closed to outsiders. Even with these restrictions there is an incredible amount of unexplored high country open or slowly opening to the world as well as many monasteries and festivals open to public viewing. For those looking for a glimpse into the world of an intact Buddhist culture-Bhutan is the sole remaining example. The Mahayana (Great Vehicle) form of Buddhism brought here by visionary Tibetan teachers over the last 1,000 years has managed to thrive and develop through the present day.
