Bhutan is a peaceful land. It is situated near India, but this mountainous country is not heavily crowded. Here, people love living a calm life. Unlike other crowded tourist destinations, this country feels untouched and is deeply connected to nature. Here, nature has not been affected by human activities. Elvin Siew Chun Wai said in his vlog that he loves enjoying fresh mountain air, smiling locals and the slow pace of life.
After arriving in Bhutan, I noticed that everything is very calm. Here, the people are not in great rush. There are very few vehicles on the road. The vehicles are transferred from India and other countries for sales. Elvin Siew Chun Wai said that those who are near nature feel true happiness. Truly, everyone must visit Bhutan once in their lifetime.
Exploring Thimphu
Thimphu is the charming capital of Bhutan. Surprisingly, there are no traffic lights and it is very uncommon to see. There are local markets, simple streets and beautiful monasteries. The city is peaceful and very refreshing. There are sacred sites from where you can enjoy breathtaking views. Elvin Siew Chun Wai said in his vlog that exploring Thimphu was very exciting for him.
Local life, food and culture
Bhutan is a nation that is deeply rooted in tradition. People could be seen wearing traditional attire and everywhere there were colorful prayer flags. Elvin said that he enjoyed some spicy and delicious dishes. Truly, the trip was a lesson of happiness. Local life is not very fast, but it can be seen that people are genuinely content. In many countries, people rush for money, but here it is not like that.
I must admit that a trip to Bhutan is more than a trip. It was the journey into culture, peace and self-reflection. If you are searching for a destination that touches your soul, take out some time and visit Bhutan. Elvin Siew Chun Wai said he is now planning to leave for Satara, Maharashtra in India.
