IN PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS ON A BHUTAN VACATION PACKAGE
Happiness is at the heart of Bhutan’s philosophy. In fact, the Kingdom’s Gross National Happiness index (or GNH for short) which, since 1972 has been viewed by the King of Bhutan, King Jigme Singye Wangchuck, as a more important metric of the success of governance than the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). With a Secret Retreats 6 nights / 7 days Bhutan tour we can guarantee smiles all around.On a 7-day Bhutan Holiday Package, you can explore breathtaking landscapes, from snow-capped mountains to picturesque river valleys. Witness Bhutan’s rich culture through local architecture, folk museums, cultural sites, and traditional art. National parks offer a glimpse of Bhutan’s remarkable wildlife, including the elusive snow leopard and the adorable red panda. No Bhutan Tour in Bhutan would be complete without a visit to Punakha Dzong, one of the most beautiful and historically significant landmarks in Bhutan.
Another must-visit attraction is the Paro Taktsang Monastery, or ‘Tiger’s Nest,’ perched 900m above the Paro Valley. A pilgrimage site for over 1,100 years, this iconic monastery is a postcard-perfect sight and one of Bhutan’s most photographed landmarks.
For those looking for an even deeper cultural immersion, our Bhutan Luxury Holiday Package offers a unique experience at Chimi Lackang, also known as ‘The Temple of Fertility.’ Founded in the 15th century, this temple is associated with the Divine Madman, Drukpa Kunley, an eccentric Buddhist teacher known for his unconventional and humorous teachings. Visitors hoping for blessings often take part in the fertility ritual, making this a truly unique stop on your Bhutan Tour Package itinerary.
