Description

This book brings alive various aspects of the dragon country through some exquisite illustrations in color and a flowing narrative..

Tucked away in the eastern Himalayas, Bhutan is the country of dreams, dragons, legends and landscapes. With its sparkling snow-clad mountains, verdant valleys, gurgling streams and forests aglow with wild orchids, this picturesque country is like no other. .

But Bhutan is more than just temperate forests and tropical jungles. It is the land where the Kind initiates the move towards democracy, where the people are firmly rooted in religion and are fiercely proud of their history. Most of all, it is a country on the path of development but without sacrificing its values or polluting its environment.
