#earthdayjourney Earth Day in Bhutan this year was a resounding success, underscoring the country's commitment to environmental sustainability and community involvement. This inspiring event saw participants from various sectors, including schools, non-profit organizations, government officials, and enthusiastic citizens, come together with a unified goal: to celebrate and protect our planet. Bhutan, long renowned for its Gross National Happiness (GNH) philosophy, showcased its dedication to the environment through a series of well-coordinated activities. Tree planting drives were held across the nation, markedly increasing green cover and providing habitats for local wildlife. Volunteers, young and old, were seen diligently planting saplings, contributing to Bhutan’s mission of maintaining ecological balance. In addition to the physical activities, Earth Day featured numerous educational workshops and seminars. Experts in environmental science and sustainable practices offered valuable insights into practical and impactful ways to reduce carbon footprints. These sessions were particularly beneficial for students, who gained knowledge that will empower them to be the future stewards of Bhutan's natural heritage. Moreover, the day was marked by a significant reduction in plastic usage across the country. Local markets and businesses pledged to minimize plastic waste, encouraging the use of biodegradable materials and reusable products. This initiative resonated deeply with Bhutanese culture, which traditionally values harmony with nature. Public policy also took the spotlight during Earth Day celebrations, with government officials making pledges to reinforce and expand existing environmental protection laws. Such commitments are crucial for ensuring that Bhutan remains on track toward achieving its ambitious environmental goals. The spirit of camaraderie and shared purpose made this Earth Day particularly memorable. It was not just a day of action but also a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when a community is united in its dedication to the planet. Bhutan continues to set an exemplary benchmark in environmental conservation, reflecting the deep connection its people have with nature. As we reflect on this enlightening day, it is evident that Earth Day in Bhutan was more than a celebration; it was a call to action, a demonstration of collective will, and, above all, a testament to the nation's unwavering commitment to a sustainable future. Let's carry forward the lessons learned and continue striving towards a greener, healthier planet.

👻 Bhutanese Hand Weaving: The meticulous Bhutanese people often order clothing in advance for occasions such as weddings, promotions, and Dharma assemblies. Hand weaving takes one to three months. Foreigners can buy them and use them as bed runners, table runners, or wall hangings, all of which are beautiful. Bhutanese government officials have at least 30 sets of outfits. My singer friend has 1,000 sets of outfits, none of which are repeated within three years. However, the Fourth King is not particular about his clothing. His personal assistant said that he only has three sets of outfits: black, red, and white. 👻 Tips for Experiencing Bhutanese Clothing 1. Depending on the production method, there are handmade silk on silk, cotton on silk, and cotton, as well as machine-made fabrics. The prices decrease accordingly, ranging from thousands of US dollars to hundreds of RMB. Many travel agencies prepare machine-made kiras for tourists, which can be rough. If you have seen and worn high-quality kiras, you may dislike the machine-made ones. 2. Let locals take you to local fabric stores, or choose from the homes of Bhutanese people you know. There are 1-2 stores that cater exclusively to tourists, and the prices are extremely high. Korma Village in eastern Bhutan is famous for its weaving. The village is very small. If you only visit briefly, you will only see the villagers' excited expressions when they see tourists. 3. You may want to try a homestay, where the hostess is usually happy to take out her private collection for guests to wear and take pictures. 4. The best quality of Bhutanese women's clothing comes from Hangzhou, China, or Japan. Sichuan brocade from China is more expensive, but it is the fabric favored by the Bhutanese royal family. 5. When it is hot, Bhutanese women do not wear the inner wangchu, but when visiting a dzong, they should wear the full set and wear a rachu. 👻 Other products 1. Wallets, backpacks, computer bags, cushions. Bhutan · Asia · Thimphu Dzong · Bhutan

#favouriteitinerary Everything about the Punakha Dzong (fortress) is beautiful and stunning. The Punakha Dzong is said to have been built in 1637 and served as the location of the Bhutan government administrative location before being moved to the current capital city of Thimphu in the 1950's. Upon entering the Dzong, you can sense the size of this facility - it is BIG! This Dzong has three (3) separate courtyard (dochey) areas, and the main (central) tower building is six (6) stories tall. In addition to the beautiful architectural design of the Punakha Dzong, the location of this Dzong at the banks of the confluence of two (2) rivers - Mochhu River and Pochhu River - what a stunning location! Very picturesque spot. The Punakha Dzong is in my opinion is a definite must visit place in Bhutan, 2nd only to the Tiger's Nest Temple.

#favouriteitinerary Chimi Lhkhang Temple is said to be preparation for the Tiger's Nest Hike. After doing both, I find that while the former can be in no way compared to the latter, the Chimi Lhkhang experience is worth it. The hike to the temple encompasses narrow paths through rice fields initially, which then gives way to a much broader path. The atmosphere is very good and peaceful; the initial hike is very easy even for people who are old or children who are very young. The main challenging part is the end portion of the hike, which comprises several steps (nearly 80-100). The temple is very different from all others visited by myself, in a good way. This temple is revered as well. It concerns the history of Divine Madman, who was considered very different from other Buddhist masters. There's a good cafeteria in the initial section of the hike, which serves food at high prices but of a good quality. Definitely try to pay a visit if time permits.

#favouriteitinerary I visited Buddha Point on Day 2 of my Bhutan trip. It's best to go in the morning as it can get very windy by the afternoon. At 2,500m above sea level, the air can be pretty thin, but the view more than makes up for it. A staggering 162 feet golden seating Buddha against the backdrop of a deep blue sky is a very mesmerising view. We can enter the main sanctum as well. Photography and video are strictly forbidden inside. The inner sanctum has a high vaulted ceiling with beautiful Mandala paintings. The walls depict the growth of Bhutan and its religious communities. Make sure to get great pictures of Thimpu City as well from the view point.

#favouriteitinerary This is what most people who come to Bhutan have come to see, the Tigers Nest. Just completed the trek. It has amazing views. The trek is difficult though. It is long, at times steep and very hard to breathe while climbing it. If you are only in average shape and/or over 50, it may take a very long time to complete. You have to move slowly. You have to take maybe 15 or so steps and then stop to allow your heart to slow down. There are really three sections to the trek. The first is regular wooded uphill hiking. Then you get to the cafeteria which has a magnificent view. And food and drink. Then you go on the second part which is steep but sometimes a flat trail and less steps. It’s not easier though. The third segment is when you are almost to the temple. You think you’ve made it, but you still have 1000 steps down and then up again to get to the temple. You then have to do all of this over again. Downhill is easier but harder on the joints. This trek requires stamina and the mindset that you can do it. It’s rigorous.

A Hotel That's Also a Temple: Your Good Luck Is Maximized｜ZhiwaLing🇧🇹 I visited many hotels during my stay in Bhutan. As a discerning and detail-oriented hotelier, one of the biggest impressions Bhutan's luxury hotels left on me is this: Bhutanese hospitality is next level! This is the ZhiwaLing Heritage hotel in Paro. ZhiwaLing is a local Bhutanese hotel brand, and they have another hotel in the capital city of Thimphu. I believe the core of a hotel always comes down to its people. For example, a hotel's hardware, to some extent, determines its origins and upbringing, but the software determines how it grows and the kind of "person" it becomes. During my visit to the ZhiwaLing Hotel in Paro, Bhutan, I was not only deeply impressed by the hotel's aesthetics but also deeply amazed by the hotel team. Every window frames a picturesque view, every step evokes a sense of Zen—time seems to stand still. The hotel features an all-suite design with a total of 45 rooms. The toiletries are from their own brand. There are four F&B outlets, a spa, a gym, a swimming pool, an outdoor hot spring, and a meditation room—everything you could need. While exploring the hotel, I happened to meet the hotel management team, who invited me for coffee and afternoon tea. While chatting with the hotel's marketing manager, I asked her: "Which travel agencies are your main partners in China, and what are your primary promotional channels? I really want to introduce your hotel to more people traveling to Bhutan!" The staff explained that the hotel underwent renovations during the pandemic and even added an elevator. I visited Room 45, which I heard is a favorite of royalty and Rinpoches. The hotel has even incorporated a Buddhist shrine directly into the room. Just sitting quietly there for a while, I felt an incredible sense of spiritual support. There's another shrine on the third floor, and antique furnishings throughout the hotel connect guests with the passage of time. Life is a series of awakenings to impermanence. I hope every guest who stays here can experience auspiciousness and joy.
