Bhutan is a tiny monarchy sandwiched between its giant neighbors India and China. The landlocked Buddhist state, though poor, is a calm, peaceful state with devoutly religious people. The state is known as a modern Shangri La because of its discouragement of foreign cultural influences and limited number of visitors allowed into the country. However, with the recent opening up of the country, the world is just beginning to recognize the charms of this Himalayan kingdom, with unexplored mountains, virgin forests and little waterfalls dotting the region.

The capital, Thimphu, is considered one of the smallest capital cities in the world. It is the largest and most populated city of Bhutan. All buildings in Thimphu, throughout Bhutan in fact, are built on traditional Bhutanese architectural principles.
Paro International Airport lies 2 hours' drive from the capital Thimphu. Regular flights operate between Paro and Kathmandu in Nepal, or Delhi and Kolkata in India, operated by Druk Air, Bhutan's national carrier. Bhutan has a system of well-maintained roads for travel within the country.
