Bhutan, the country of the "Thunder Dragon," greets you. During your flight, we're confident you'll be awestruck by the breathtaking view of the gorgeous Himalayas, particularly the tall Mt. Jumolhari and Jichu Drake Peaks. They are, however, merely a little appetizer. Our Bhutan guide and driver will be waiting for you at the Paro international airport and will then bring you to your accommodation.

After a quick break at your hotel, we may visit the Kyichu Lhakhang (also known as Kyerchu Temple), Bhutan's oldest and most beautiful temple, Kyichu Lhakhang, surrounded by fields, flowers, and hills, has the eight-year-old Sakyamuni Buddha statue, historic relics, exquisite murals, and various Buddhist scriptures, among other things. Later, see the Rinpung Dzong in Paro. Rinpung Dzong, a castle built in the 17th century to safeguard Paro Valley, is located in the suburbs of Paro City and offers stunning views and a sense of inner serenity.

Climate

You'll see a variety of climatic conditions in Bhutan, depending on altitude and season. It's sweltering and humid to the south, while the uphills and mountains to the north are blanketed in snow. Due to rain shadow effects, rainfall can vary across a small distance. Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter are the four seasons that we experience. The rainy season begins in July and August, and Bhutanese believe that the rainy season will conclude in September with a festival called Thrue (beautiful rainy day). The seasons of spring and fall are ideal for tourists visiting Bhutan. Due to snowfalls, the temperature lowers below zero in the winter. The days are usually hot, while the nights are usually frigid.

Bhutanese Beliefs

Bhutanese people are god-fearing, peace-loving people who regularly incorporate Buddhist values into their daily lives. Nonviolence and compassion for all sentient beings are essential Buddhist philosophy principles that are deeply ingrained in Bhutanese culture. Prayer flags in the breeze, Chortens (stupas), monasteries, and twirling prayer wheels are all common sights, with people sending petitions through prayer flags and maintaining an unbroken line of communication with heaven.

Religion

Today, Bhutan is the only country in the world that practices the Tantric form of Mahayana Buddhism. Guru Padma Sambhava introduced Buddhism to the country in the 8th century AD. Religious festivals are known as 'Tsechus' and 'Dromchoes,' which represent amity, peace, and compassion, are held annually at various times throughout the kingdom. These vibrant festivals are a time for people from all walks of life to come together decently dressed in their ceremonial attire.
