BHUTAN TRAVEL VLOG | Ep. 1 | Thimphu, Buddha Dordenma, Craft Bazaar & more | Dr. Khushbu Pandya
Here’s presenting the first part of the Bhutan Series Episode 1 in Thimphu. We went to Thimphu as a first part of our road trip in the country, driving from Phuentsholing (a Town on the Indian - Bhutan Border).
Some important things about the trip that I have'nt mentioned in the Vlog:
1. If you are planning your trip to Bhutan, the most important thing to keep in mind is that the country is majorly dependent on cash. Indian currency is accepted across Bhutan so you can carry the cash everywhere in Bhutan.
2. We stayed at Hotel Amodhara, which is very close to the local weekend market and just 2 to 3 kms away from the clock tower square. We chose this place to stay because we love to walk around the city and explore it by walking.
3. The trip was planned by Traveller By Birth. She is an excellent itinerary designer and a world traveller. You can connect her at info@travellerbybirth.com
4. If you are visiting Bhutan, I would highly recommend you to buy a local sim instead of going for international roaming. A local sim will be easily available for INR 200 at Phuentsholing from the TashiCell Office.
5. While at Phuntsholing, make sure to visit Kizom Cafe. Great place to start or unwind the day.
6. Top 9 Places to visit in Thimphu are :
---- 1. Largest sitting Buddha statue (Buddha Dordenma)
---- 2. Keunselphodrang Nature Park
---- 3. Thimphu Dzong
---- 4. Weekend Market
---- 5. National Memorial Chorten
---- 6. Folk Heritage Museum
---- 7. National Institute for Zorig Chusum
---- 8. National Library of Bhutan
---- 9. Clock Tower Square
Let me know in comments if this info helped and how was the video. Stay tuned to episode 2 of the Bhutan Series.

National Library of Bhutan
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The National Library of Bhutan (NLB) (Dzongkha: Druk Gyelyong Pedzö འབྲུག་རྒྱལ་ཡོངས་དཔེ་མཛོད།), Thimphu, Bhutan was established in 1967 for the purpose of preservation and promotion of the rich cultural and religious heritage of Bhutan. It is located in the Kawajangtsa area of Thimphu, above the Royal Thimphu Golf Course, near the Folk Heritage Museum and the National Institute for Zorig Chusum (Traditional Arts and Crafts).
Thimpu Motithang Takin Preserve Bhutan Ep20 Mumbai-Bhutan Road Trip By LcTravelers
LcTravelers
Motithang Takin Preserve, located in the Motithang district of Thimphu, Bhutan is a wildlife reserve area for takin, the national animal of Bhutan. Originally a mini-zoo, it was converted into a preserve when it was discovered that the animals refrained from inhabiting the surrounding forest even when set free. The reason for declaring takin as a national animal of Bhutan on 25 November 2005 (Budorcas taxicolor) is attributed to a legend of the animal’s creation in Bhutan in the 15th century by Lama Drukpa Kunley.
When a small number of takin were confined in a mini-zoo in Thimphu, the King of Bhutan felt that it was improper for a Buddhist country to confine animals for religious and environmental reasons. He therefore ordered the release of the animals and the closure of the mini-zoo. To everyone’s surprise, the takin, known for their docile behavior, refused to leave the immediate area, and strayed in the streets of Thimphu in search of food for weeks. LcTravelers
Takin have little economic value; they provide a traditional medicinal use by women to help them during child birth.and are of keen interest to a relatively small but uncertain number of trekkers annually in Bhutan. LcTravelers

Arirang Prime Ep108 The mysterious country of Bhutan, where earth meets sky 하늘과 맞닿은 신비의 나라, 부탄
The mysterious country of Bhutan, where earth meets sky
Bhutan is a mysterious country surrounded by the Himalayas.
The majority of its territory is covered with mountains reaching 2,000 meters in height. There are more monks than police troops in this Buddhist kingdom, which is the world's only country without traffic lights. Nor does it have fast food restaurants or foreign commercial advertisements. Everything believed to disrupt people's happiness is outlawed in Bhutan. And anyone can receive health care and education for free. More than 60 percent of the national territory is allocated to forests. Despite its poverty, Bhutan is a spiritually rich country that chooses slowness over growth.
Poor but happy
In 1972, the Bhutanese king said he would focus not on promoting the country's gross domestic product, but its gross national happiness. While other countries pursue economic growth, Bhutan pursues happiness. Yangzom, who we met at the Wangchuk National Referral Hospital, brought her child to undergo health examinations. This woman can't afford healthcare costs because she makes a living selling goods at a market, but she doesn't look worried. Anyone in Bhutan can receive medical treatment free of charge. She says she is happy to live in this country.
Bhutan provides free healthcare and education to its residents. Tshering Dorji attends the National Institute for Zorig Chusum, where he receives top-quality education because of his outstanding talent. Thanks to government subsidies, this young man from a small village can receive high-quality education free of charge. The government has also agreed to sponsor his studies abroad upon graduating. The Bhutanese government supports its talented people and presents all its residents with equal opportunities. One of the world's poorest countries, Bhutan has achieved what many industrialized countries have yet to.
Happiness increased by sharing
Passang Dem's family, from a small village of Mendi, prepares for an important occasion. Bhutanese households hold the religious ritual Puja three or four times a year when an important event takes place. One day before the ritual, Buddhist monks visit a family to make butter flowers to be offered to god. The ritual is accompanied by music while the monks pray for the family's happiness. After the ritual, all the neighbors have a meal together. Passang Dem's family is happy to receive many guests. Sharing is part of their everyday routine.
Finding spiritual happiness
The Memorial Choeten Temple was built by the mother of Bhutan's third king. Wangchuk Dema spends his entire days spinning a hand-prayer wheel, which is believed to have an effect similar to reading scriptures. When spinning the heavy wheel, Wangchuk Dema thinks of everything good he has done during his life and prays that his life after death would be more beautiful. The Bhutanese say they are happy to follow god's will.
Entrusting one's life to god
The Taktshang Goemba Temple is located 3,300 meters above sea level on a steep cliff. This sacred place is hard to reach, but it is a must-visit location for the Bhutanese. Lopen Dorji struggles to climb the steep cliff carrying a heavy bag. He is exhausted but joyful. His light steps show his secret to happiness.
Bhutan 2 - Bhutan National Memorial Stupa
The Memorial Stupa, Thimphu also known as the Thimphu Chorten was built in 1974 to honor the third King, Druk Gyalpo, Jigme Dorji Wangchuck.
