There are endless pictures but a very few speak a story. Whenever we travel we capture these stories and later look at these in order to reminisce. Similarly, we also document certain experiences good and bad both as learnings and experiences. Moreover, these pictures also lets us relive the moment we lived in past. Getting inspiration to plan our next travel is another amazing factor to capture these beautiful moments.

Majestic architecture is a prime attraction of Bhutanese culture and history. Breathtaking natural beauty surrounding these architectures makes them even more appealing. The weather condition and good roads are a pulse point for travelers to reach the destination. However, there are still certain places where there is no proper place to stay and can only be reached by tracking. The country is blessed with amazing tracking trails and also host numerous adventure activities like river rafting and mountain cycling or rides etc.

To conclude with, this blog will let you see some of the moments that I lived while I was in this beautiful country. I am sure this will inspire you to take sometime and imagine how you can plan a visit for yourself. A detailed blog on one week itinerary to visit Bhutan will be linked here.
