I Have Traveled To The Kingdom Of Bhutan Otherwise Known As The Land Of Happiness (36 Pics)
What do you think of when you hear the word "Bhutan"? Until I visited Bhutan, I didn't have much of an image of the country, just a vague idea of the "Land of Happiness. During my trip to Bhutan, I had a chance to think about what the appeal of this country is. Located on the eastern edge of the Himalayas, Bhutan is at a high altitude and the clouds are very close. Bhutan is also known as the "Land of Thunder Dragons.
The scenery we encountered everywhere we went had a mystique and grandeur that made us feel as if dragons lived there. The people have a strong faith in Tibetan Buddhism, and good deeds are natural and bring compassion to the hearts of the people. From the land of Bhutan, I felt a peaceful air that made me feel at peace. I think this air itself is the charm of this country. I would like to convey this atmosphere through my photographs.

I Love To Look At The Sky When I Travel. In Particular, The Clouds In Bhutan Leave A Deep Impression On Me. In One Of My Favorite Anime Movies, The Huge Clouds Are Called "Dragon's Nest," And I Can't Help But Wonder If There Are Dragons Lurking Behind The Clouds In Bhutan. I Can't Help But Think So.
