Thimphu Travel Safety Guide — Bhutan

Safety Score: 9/10 · Value: 6/10 · Beauty: 8.9/10

Bhutan is unlike any other destination on Earth, a constitutional monarchy nestled in the eastern Himalayas that measures Gross National Happiness instead of GDP, has never been colonised, and actively limits tourism through a Sustainable Development Fee (USD 100/day). The result is pristine mountain scenery, intact Buddhist culture, wildlife including the rare snow leopard and black-necked crane, and an experience of genuine cultural immersion. Tiger's Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang), clinging to a 3,000m cliff face, is one of Asia's most iconic sights.
