chosen to remain a hidden paradise, accessible only
to a fortunate few. Bhutan is marked by raw natural
beauty where the dense foliage changes dramatically
as the sub tropical jungles at sea level merge into
a fertile temperate zone and rise up to the great
northern glaciers. This pristine environment is home
to exotic wildlife and is a last refuge for endangered
species like the Black-Necked Crane, the Blue Sheep,
the Golden Langur, even the Royal Bengal Tiger.
