Until recently, Bhutan has been relatively unknown. In many minds, it is a mystical secluded place. Bhutan is gaining popularity as a travel destination, owing to the credits of international media features and Bhutan's skillful management of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Over the past fifty years, Bhutan has gradually emerged from centuries-long self-isolation to meet modernisation demands. It has been careful with its choices and decisions on the road of development and progression. While Bhutan has opened its doors to the world, a 'High value, Low volume' tourism policy still guides the country to ensure that its unique culture, identity and natural environment will continue to be protected from external influence.

Bhutan Travelog aims to provide readers with insights into the country's history, values, customs, as well as travel tips and recommendations. This book also includes 7 new exclusive first-hand stories from diverse travellers who have been to Bhutan to provide a glimpse into this idyllic country and update visa policy to Bhutan.

""A beautiful guide brimming with useful tips, stunning images and insights into Bhutan's unique 'High value, Low volume' tourism policy"" Dorji Dhradhul Former Director General, Tourism Council of Bhutan ""This Bhutan Travelog published by Druk Asia is a welcome addition to the growing literature on Bhutan, a unique country in the Himalayas, whose tourism policy is ""High value, Low volume"". This travelog takes you through beautiful pictures and a pleasant lay-out, to the most famous parts of the kingdom covering also the great culture of Bhutan. A wonderful book to discover this unique place and its people"" Françoise Pommaret PhD, Researcher and author of ""Bhutan"" ""I have read many travel guides for Bhutan over the years but Ashley Chen and Joni Herison's gorgeous BHUTAN TRAVELOG is the absolute best. It's beautifully researched, with the most relevant and detailed information about every inch of this magical country that only true insiders know. There's tons of great tips and an interesting section called 'Travelers' Tales' where people from all walks of life describe their visits here. But the jaw dropping photos are what really sets this book apart. Anyone interested in Bhutan will love this book."" Linda Leaming, author of ""Married to Bhutan"" ""The Bhutan Travelog is excellent! It's very comprehensive - it's the only guide book I know which realises what a fun experience the Pho Chu suspension bridge is!!!! It's a guidebook that one can read and look at for pleasure, rather than just for information!"" Michael Rutland OBE British Honorary Consul to Bhutan
