Known as the Land of Happiness, Bhutan prioritises the well-being and happiness of its citizens over purely economic growth. This holistic approach emphasises environmental conservation, cultural preservation and good governance.
This small country is famous for its commitment to environmental sustainability. It was the first country in the world to declare a national goal of being carbon negative, which means it absorbs more carbon dioxide than it emits. The country has vast forests and biodiversity, and it prioritises conservation in its policies.
Known as the Land of Happiness, Bhutan is a place of peace and serenity. As soon as one crosses the border, everything will look and feel different. People are warm and polite. Less traffic and chaos. No one is in a hurry. People have their own pace and way of living. You can talk to anyone, you will definitely get a smile and response in return. I visited Bhutan with my friends and stayed there for a week. I am sure that the lap of mountains and sparkling flowing rivers will soothe your body and mind.
Indian diaspora in Bhutan, the mountainous kingdom of the Thunder Dragon, contribute significantly to the country’s economy, society and culture. There are around 60,000 Indian nationals living in Bhutan, mostly employed in hydropower projects. In addition, 8000-10000 people travel between border towns for work every day.
