Cultural Tours

Bhutan's affluent and nonpareil cultural heritage has largely remained flawless due to its self-imposed isolation aloofness from the rest of the world until five decades ago. The lack of contact with the outside world has avowed the kingdom to educe through the centuries into a enunciated pattern of social and economic life, religion and political institutions. Unlike many countries, traditional arts, age-old ceremonies, festivals, social conduct and structures are not residues of an oldfangled age but are still practised as they were done hundreds of years ago.
