With its snow capped mountains, deep valleys and lush forests, Bhutan has some of the most diverse ecosystems in the world. Centuries old Buddhist traditions endure as a part of daily life. The Bhutanese people maintain and protect these traditions. The national language, dress, architecture and natural resources are all jealously guarded. No foreign ownership of land or businesses is allowed.
Tourism is extremely limited.
Only in the past two years has television and the internet been legalized. There are many things that you will not find in Bhutan. There are no traffic lights or elevators anywhere in the country. There are no five star hotels. And, there are no clear cut forests.
