Glimpse of Bhutan
(3)
|
 In 1971 Bhutan broke from its traditional isolation to become a member of the United Nations. The monarchy wanted the outside world to open the kingdom to the prospect of outside trade, education and limited tourism. For the first ten nears tourist traffic came over land from Calcutta or Darjeeling through Phuentsholing in the south to the Paro Valley. In 1982, a long-awaited airstrip was completed at Paro; Druk-Air, the national airline, was born, and tourism to Bhutan began in earnest. The government is determined to restrict the number of visitors to the kingdom to preserve its priceless independent spirit. This independence has enabled a people to evolve with a pure and unadulterated vision of life. Void of the egocentricity that is rife in so many of its neighbours, Bhutanese people are gracious, gentle and generous.
