About Hung Tours And Trek

Bhutan is a tiny and remote kingdom nestling in the Himalayas between its powerful neighbours, India and China. Almost completely cut off for centuries, it has tried to let in some aspects of the outside world while fiercely guarding its ancient traditions.The Bhutanese name for Bhutan, Druk Yul, means "Land of the Thunder Dragon" and it only began to open up to outsiders in the 1970s.The Wangchuc (Read More)k hereditary monarchy has wielded power since 1907. But Bhutan became a two-party parliamentary democracy after elections in March 2008. Bhutan is the only country measuring the Gross national happiness (GNH) as measure of economic and moral progress that the country of Bhutan introduced in the 1970s as an alternative to gross domestic product. The "four pillars" of GNH are good governance, sustainable development, preservation and promotion of culture, and environmental conservation.
