About Bhutan
Bhutan is a country that has spent much of its history in a self-imposed isolation. Certainly, its location in the midst of the imposing Himalayan Mountains has helped to maintain this detachment form the outside world. But for the last thirty years this has changed. Since 1974 Bhutan has gradually improved it relations for the purposes of tourism. Though who have visiting the country have remarked at its unspoiled natural beauty, amazing artistic and architectural wonders and its kind and welcoming natives.
