Get a glimpse of the country, its cultivated fields surrounded by pitched roof houses with their typical trefoil-shape windows and dzongs that dominate the scenery with their sheer size. Its people are hardworking, vibrantly attired, and deeply religious while the land is immaculate. Not to miss, the Taktsang Monastery, a must-visit when in Bhutan. Also known as Tiger’s Nest, it is not only a pilgrimage site, but also a hiker’s delight and a complete joy for photographers.
