Architecture+DesignSummary: Yes, the country lives in her own unique era. She is a country much revered for her traditional ancient architecture and for having the pulse of nature where dramatic mountain landscapes, rivers and forests create an environment that smells ecstatically pure and evolves a soothing meditative aura. Yes, she is the small but mesmerizing Buddhist mountain kingdom of Bhutan– tucked on the upper terrains of the majestic Himalayas. Tradition and culture bring in a strong sense of pride and confidence in the citizens here.
In order to come closer to the evolution process of this land generously pampered and gifted by nature, it would be relevant to know that Bhutan is a monarchy with a democratically elected government and a very strong and influential religious body of monks. What really enthrals you as a visitor is the respect and reverence given to heritage in the form of the numerous monasteries and the fortresses.
