BHUTAN
Bhutan – a heavenly abode in the heart of the vast Himalaya,
but little known to the outside
world just being wedged between giant neighbors and secluded by some of the
highest ranges.
The last paradise on earth reflects age old religion,
culture, arts & architecture in its golden peaks in the background of deep
green valleys and hillside, the vivid blue of the rivers and the sky, the white
of the snow
Above the brown-gold alpine pastures speaking a serene
language of silence-an integral parts of Himalaya Buddhism for meditation and
worship enabling the believers to reach closer to the goal of enlightenment.
