| Summary |
"Bhutan is a ruggedly mountainous country known for its cliff-side monasteries and snowcapped peaks. Colorful prayer flags wind their way through breezy gorges. The magical and mystical personality of Bhutan can be felt from the highest mountaintops to the deepest valleys, and down every ancient alleyway in between. This title explores the traditional culture, diverse wildlife, ancient arts, and newest developments inside the kingdom of Bhutan. Informative sidebars, detailed maps, up-to-date facts, and vibrant photographs help illuminate the history and mystery of this Asian nation"-- Provided by publisher. |
