Why Bhutan is a destination! Bhutan is the last of the Himalayan Kingdoms. The small country is situated in the nooks and crannies of the highest mountain range on the earth. It’s special place that didn’t have paved roads until the 1960’s, was off- limits to foreign tourist until the 1970’s and it didn’t have television until 1999, the last country in the world to get service. The altitude and scenery are enough to take your breath away. In this country the environment is cherished. The kingdom of Bhutan lists environmental protection as an one of the four pillars of happiness , a state of mind the country takes so seriously that “ gross national happiness “ is considered more important than gross domestic product. http://www.go2bhutan.com
