Top Reasons To Visit Bhutan During Spring Top Reasons To Visit Bhutan During Spring Bhutan is a quaint little land locked away in the laps of the mighty Himalayas. It is the only country in the world that measures its prosperity on an index of Gross National Happiness. This makes it a perfect destination to visit if you are someone who is in pursuit of happiness. Springtime is considered as the best time to travel to this Land of the Thunder Dragon, we tell you why. Paro Tshechu The people of Bhutan love to celebrate their festivals or Tsechus, as they call it. Be a part of one of their grandest festivals held in Paro on your Bhutan tour package, where you can admire the colorful costumes and vibrant dance performances of the trained monks and laymen. Rhododendron Festival Bhutan in springtime is a visual treat more so for the nature lovers as a plethora of flora can be seen in full bloom during this period. Visit The Lampiri Botanical Gardens on your Bhutan tour package that is located near the Dochula Pass and is extremely popular for its collection of a wide variety of spectacular rhododendrons. Jomolhari Trek Since Bhutan is nestled in the Himalayas it offers uncountable trek opportunities for the adventure enthusiasts. Mount Jomolhari straddles the Tibet-Thimpu border and is also considered as a sacred mountain to the Tibetan Buddhists. Spring is considered to be the best time to opt for this trek. So, don’t forget to add Bhutan trekking as a fun activity in your Bhutan tour itinerary. Jacaranda Blossoms at Punakha Dzong Punakha Dzong, also known as The Palace of Happiness and Bliss, is located at the confluence of two rivers – Mo Chhu and Po Chhu. This is one of the most charming structures of Bhutan which is also the second oldest Buddhist dzong in the kingdom. This is surely a must-visit attraction on your Bhutan tour package during spring! Bhutan International Marathon Imagine visiting Bhutan and also helping a worthy cause while at it? The Bhutan International Marathon (that takes place in the first week of March) lets you participate in a marathon conducted at least 1310 meters above sea level and offers breathtaking views of the scenery all around you as you run. Enjoy Water Sports The best season to engage in water sports like river rafting and kayaking is in the spring season between the months of March and May. This is one of the most exciting activities that you must include in every Bhutan group tour, especially if you are an adventure junkie, as your trip would be incomplete without it. Visit the Haa Valley This is the road less travelled in the truest sense of the term. Not many people can say that they have travelled to the remote villages in the Haa Valley. The best way to know more about the culture of a foreign tribe is to experience a local stay with them. Gain an insight into the Bhutanese culture by enjoying the company of the natives on your Bhutan tour package.

So, if you are a bird lover, this country will provide you with a chance to admire more than 670 species of fauna. These numbers include some very rare and globally endangered species too. So, make sure you come loaded with your DSLR and zoom lenses on your Bhutan group tours to click lots of pictures. Bumthang Owl Trek Jomolhari trek can be a little overwhelming for someone who has no prior experience of trekking or is not a fitness enthusiast.
