Green oasis of peace
Chencho Lham, our guide, was well-informed and very helpful and Thinley Dorji was an excellent driver. The peace and quiet of Bhutan was very welcome and we appreciated the ubiquitous greenery due to the extensive forest cover. Visiting the numerous temples and Dzongs made me realize that Buddhism is much more complex than I thought and I look forward to deepening my knowledge. Particularly memorable were the monks consulting their mobile phones.
