Punakha Dzong is the second-oldest and second-largest dzong in Bhutan, and a strong contender for the most striking. This is especially true in spring when the dzong is surrounded by blooming jacaranda trees. The dzong not only serves as the winter home of the Central Monastic Body but has also hosted a number of significant national events such as the wedding of His Majesty The King to Gyaltsuen Jetsun Pema Wangchuck.

If there is one thing that sets Bhutanese people apart it’s their humour which is equal parts cheeky and guileless. These characteristic quirks interwoven with a vivacious culture, colourful traditions and deeply rooted Buddhist values are what make the country’s eccentric personality. Bhutan is a mystically compelling land, but look closely and you will understand even the most arcane details of the Bhutanese way of life.

Explore Bhutan!

It’s easy to feel infatuated with the idea of Bhutan when you first hear of this mysterious Himalayan kingdom, but once you discover the people, food, its culture and traditions, and feel the pulse of what truly makes the nation, you are in love. Be surprised by the diversity of Bhutan – so much more than meditating monks and smiling faces. From the flamboyant heart of the country’s modestly sized capital to remote highlanders and sultry southern foothills, Bhutan is a land at once meticulously preserved and rebelliously modern.

Traveling to Bhutan to get expensive for Indians; tourists must pay fees @ $65 [₹4,659 approx.] per day as "Sustainable Development Fee" as well as a $40 visa charge.

Under Bhutan's new draft tourism policy, Indians would be charged a Sustainable Development Fee, as well as a permit processing fee.

Bhutan is planning to levy charges on tourists travelling from India, Maldives and Bangladesh. This measure has been taken due to rising influx of tourists in the Land of Thunder Dragon.

The new draft tourism policy, which is prepared by Tourism Council of Bhutan (TCB), is said to be finalised by the Bhutanese cabinet in December.

The latest draft was discussed by Bhutanese Foreign Minister Tandi Dorji with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar in Delhi on Monday.

Currently, tourists from international destinations pay $250 (Rs 18,000 approx) as a minimum charge per day per person, which includes a $65 a day "Sustainable Development Fee", as well as a $40 visa charge. Whereas tourists from India, Bangladesh and the Maldives don't need to pay any fees or carry visa.

However, under Bhutan's new draft tourism policy, Indians would be charged a Sustainable Development Fee, as well as a "permit processing fee".

Furthermore, Bhutanese government is also looking forward to stop regional tourists from using low-rent accommodation offered online, as this has led to unregulated guest houses and homestays, including Airbnb, said Director-General of TCB Dorji Dhradhul.

In 2018 about 2,74,000 tourists visited Bhutan. Out of which 1,80,000 were alone from India, reported The Hindu.

ATTENTION to the PROSPECTIVE TOURISTS: Beware of cheap tour packages to Bhutan. Such practices are not supported and can be punishable by existing norms of the Kingdom…

Lately, some ex-country tour operators/companies/ individuals in partnerships with local (Bhutanese) partners appear to be engaging in unethical businesses. We hear and see the advertisement on social media and websites selling tour packages in Bhutan at very cheap prices. These prices are unbelievably low and practically not possible to provide services of any acceptable standards. They claim to offer cheap flights, cheap accommodation, cheap food, which could be possible but at a maximum level of compromise in the services offered to the tourists. This is not allowed by our Tourism Policy of “High Value, exclusivity”. Such unethical practice will pose a high and real risk in getting the reputation of our “High value and Exclusivity” tourism marred. This also pose a huge risk on the health and safety of the tourists. Bhutan Tourism believes in giving best experiences to all Tourists.
Therefore, TCB considers such practices as illegal and condemns. Bhutan Tourism has a minimum tariff to ensure a comfortable experience if not exclusive. TCB condemns such practices and if such practices are caught with evidence, the defaulters will be dealt as per the existing rules. Prospective tourist is informed to be careful and avoid dealings with such unethical practices.

The Kingdom of Bhutan is an exclusive, high-end travel destination, which promotes immersive and experiential travel. The overall tourism development and promotion are guided by the policy principle of ‘High value, Low Impact’ and at the core of this policy principle is promoting responsible and mindful tourism that considers the benefit of visitors and the host destinations. In order to ensure that visitors get good experience and host communities are not impacted negatively, we encourage our visitors using professionally trained tour guides, certified accommodation, and comfortable vehicles which are an integral part of one’s travel experience. All these factors play a vital role in creating a wonderful experience for a visitor.

Book With Us ! and Explore this Historic Temple.
The famous Changangkha Lhakhang is an ancient fortress-like temple in the city of Thimphu. The temple was built in the 12th century by Lama Pharjo Drukgorn who lived in Ralung in Tibet. Traditionally, parents used to come here to get auspicious names for their newborn babies or blessing for their young kids from the protector known as Deity Tamdrin. The children were blessed by Phurba the ritual dagger and given a holy thread that would protect them all the time.
