Bhutan is situated in the eastern end of the Himalayas. It's a beautiful landlocked country. The moment you think of Bhutan, you can imagine artistically designed monastries, amazing looking dzongs, and scenic treks. Bhutan is called Druk Yul - Land of Thunder Dragon. Because of the violent and large thunderstorms that whip down through the valleys from the Himalayas, Bhutan is known as the Land of Thunder Dragon.
