Shielding itself enough from industrialization, Bhutan takes pride in being a more spiritual place, committed to the contentment of its people. What better way to start the New Year than in the happiest Asian nation at a time when it’s magically covered in snow? Let Vajor Experiences take you on a spiritual journey through the monasteries of the ‘Land of the Thunder Dragon’ where we ‘decode’ happiness amidst the serenity of the place, the high mountains, lush green valleys, flowing streams & the humble citizens of the country.
The experience promises to be a deeply spiritual one at its core focussing on intimate interaction with the culture as we taste local delicacies and experience traditions, with nature as you hike through offbeat trails to appreciate the magnificent monasteries and engage in meditative sessions, with the locals as you witness a happy-soul ceremony by a monk.
