Arirang Prime Ep108 The mysterious country of Bhutan, where earth meets ..About Bhutan few travelers go to Bhutan because of the country’s insufficient infrastructure and the government’s desire to keep the country somewhat isolated in order to sustain its extraordinary culture. While accommodations are usually quite comfortable, they can sometimes be considered basic. Meals are usually served buffet-style at the hotel and include plenty of cooked vegetables, rice and occasionally meat. Vegetarians will have no issues finding enough to eat. Bhutan is situated high in the Himalayas. The altitude shouldn’t be a problem for most, but sometimes people react to it with minor headaches or stomachaches. Participants should be fairly fit and expect to do light hiking throughout the journey. For those vulnerable to motion sickness, please bring medication or natural remedies in the event the twisty roads get to you..

Bhutan – Thailand Friendship Offer

http://www.bhutantoursandtreks.com/cultural-tour/bhutan-thailand-friendship-offer
Bhutan and Thailand celebrated 25 years of friendship and diplomatic relations, coinciding with His Majesty the King’s 34 birth anniversary yesterday.
On the occasion the Royal Government of Bhutan has made an offer to the government of Thailand for promoting people to people contact in continuing its friendship and bilateral cooperation through tourism.
The ‘Bhutan- Thailand Friendship Offer’ was launched by His Royal Highness Prince Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuk in J.W Marriott Hotel in Bangkok yesterday.
As a part of the ‘Bhutan – Thailand Friendship offer’ the Tourism Council of Bhutan (TCB) would exempt the Thai nationals from paying the mandatory minimum daily package rate and would only levy the daily royalty of USD 65 person per night during the peak seasons like June, July and August.
Further Drukair and Bhutan Airlines would offer 50 % discounts on airfares to the Thai nationals, while hotels would also provide discount of 50% for every halt. In addition Thai visitors would enjoy a special airport reception arrangement on arrival.
However, such facilities will be offered only to those Thai nationals who visit Bhutan through licensed Bhutanese tour operators.
During the launch the Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay said that such an exceptional offer particularly to the Thai nationals would further strengthen the relationship between the two countries and its people.
Lyonchhen also added that Thai and Bhutanese citizens have similar reverence and respect for the His Majesty and the royal families for both the countries. “More importantly this year Bhutan and Thailand celebrates its 25 years of friendship” said Lyonchhen.
The Prime Minister also added that apart from agriculture and hydro power, tourism is an important means for economic development and generating revenue for the country. Hence he said that it is very important to promote tourism in Bhutan by coming up with special plans and programs for visitors.
Lyonchhen said that tourists have the perception of a cold harsh climate during winter and incessant rainfall during summer which is why many visitors chose to visit in the month of June, July and August. Therefore, the government has plans to attract more visitors by providing diversification of services and products.
“This is the first such offer for the first time by Bhutan to Thailand, and similar offers would be made to other countries too” Lyonchhen Tshering Tobgay said. The PM said that such an offer to Thailand

BHUTAN TREKKING TOURS

Bhutan is indeed a veritable paradise for birders, trekkers, nature-lovers and poets. It offers richly to the outside world in the form of floral and faunal diversity so unmatched perhaps in the world. Rufous-necked hornbill, white-bellied heron, black-necked crane and Blyth’s tragopan are some of the birds which have become globally rare but worthy of sighting in Bhutan. Blue poppy, rhododendrons, magnolia and orchids are some of the flowers to witness in the country. Tiger, Takin, musk deer, golden langur and snow leopard are other noteworthy animals to see here. Bhutan’s rugged terrain is nourished by its mighty rivers, glaciers and other forces of nature.

Bhutan is predominantly the last Mahayana Buddhist country in the world. In the southern foothills people practice Hinduism. Other forms of religious beliefs and practices have also made headway in the recent past.

The true explosion of Bhutanese culture can be witnessed during the religious festivals called ‘Tshechus’ and also during occasions and gatherings.
