Known to the Bhutanese as ‘Druk Yul’ or ‘Land of the Thunder Dragon’, Bhutan is the last Buddhist Kingdom in the Himalayas.
Bhutan is a country where spirits and myths are an accepted part of daily life and where the Gross National Happiness of it’s people is used as an official measure of development by the government.
It is a country where sacred mountains remain unclimbed and fishing is banned from its pristine rivers.
Gangtey (Phobjikha) Valley is a wide glacial valley and one of the most stunning areas within The Kingdom of Bhutan.
It is a protected nature reserve and winter roosting grounds of the endangered black neck cranes.

In order to appreciate at least three of the main tourist valleys, we would recommend 10 to 12 nights in the country.

Northern Hemisphere Spring and Autumn are normally considered the best times to visit Bhutan with beautiful warm days and cool nights.
However, winter has beautiful crisp sunny days perfect for walking. In Gangtey (Phobjikha) Valley, late October to mid-March are the best times to see the endangered Black-neck cranes that come to roost in the valley.
