Punakha Winter Trek

Long hidden but exquisite, so much so, culturally rich country is Bhutan. Although the exploration of culturally rich country Bhutan was once behind the curtain from the eyes of the tourists from different countries in the world, recently it has disclosed its different parameters for the visitors to explore the country. During our visit, we explore marvellous, wide and lush valleys, cultural treasury of rural life, local exquisite handicrafts, spectacular mountainous range and so on. The most and fantastic trek to explore unique as well as the exotic and outlandish experience of Bhutanese rural culture is Bumthang valley and its rural life.
