Bhutan
The last Shangri-La, measured in happiness.
Bhutan is the world's only carbon-negative country and the last great Himalayan Buddhist kingdom — a nation that measures Gross National Happiness and guards its culture fiercely. Fortress-like dzongs, fluttering prayer flags and the cliff-clinging Tiger's Nest define it.
TripTrix Bhutan journeys, arranged with our on-the-ground partners, move from Paro and Thimphu to the sub-tropical grandeur of Punakha Dzong and the sacred hike to Taktsang monastery.
What makes Bhutan unmissable
Tiger's Nest (Taktsang)
Bhutan's iconic monastery clinging to a 900m cliff above Paro valley.
Punakha Dzong
The kingdom's most beautiful fortress at the meeting of two rivers.
Thimphu
The world's only capital with no traffic lights, and the giant Buddha Dordenma.
Living Buddhist culture
Festivals (tshechus), archery and a way of life rooted in Vajrayana Buddhism.
When to travel to Bhutan
Rhododendrons, clear skies and spring festivals — prime time.
Crisp Himalayan views and the famous Thimphu/Paro tshechus.
Cold and clear with fewer visitors; some high passes snowbound.
