Welcome to the 8th episode of Season 2 of the Mark and Embark Podcast by ScoutMyTrip. The host for this episode is Myra Naik.

Sandwiched between China and India, Bhutan wasn’t unified until the 17th century. Four hundred years later, the country’s doors were open to tourists officially in 1974. Bhutan is also known as the “Land of the Thunder Dragon”. It is a tiny country deep within the mighty Himalayas. Bhutan is complete with stunning landscapes, legendary ancient temples and fortresses, colorful festivals, spicy yet delicious food, and mostly its authenticity. Since it is known for its amazing weather, every time is the best time to visit Bhutan.

Bhutan is not an ordinary place. It is an amply modern country and at the same time, it’s also medieval with one foot rooted deeply in its past. It has made sure that even though it’s moving forward towards modernization, it won’t lose its soul. Bhutan government emphasizes the preservation and promotion of culture and tradition, sustainable socio-economic development, and preservation and protection of the natural environment. The charms of this isolated Himalayan Kingdom are knitted strong within its cultural realms.

Tune in to this episode to discover all the reasons to visit Bhutan. And if we manage to convince you enough to attend it, check out all the options to book your spot to visit this country!
