Bhutan: Hidden Kingdom of the Himalayas

2019

This spiritual journey of discovery begins in Delhi, where you’ll witness the many facets of India’s sprawling
capital—from the Mughal glory of Old Delhi to the Raj-era splendor of New Delhi. Then, journey to one of
the least visited countries in the world—Bhutan. A spiritual oasis nestled in the foothills of the snow-capped
Himalayas; Bhutan is a tiny nation whose guiding principle is “Gross National Happiness,” a Buddhist
philosophy that puts the emotional and spiritual well-being of the Bhutanese people ahead of economic
progress. Witness the treasures of Delhi, one of the oldest existing cities in the world, before embarking on a
life-changing journey to Bhutan, home to serene landscapes hidden in the clouds where happiness is woven
into the fabric of everyday life.
