LP do it again. The guide rightly focuses on facts for the visitor, explaining the practicalities of travelling to the country and pointing out how one can design a customised tour. It provides an excellent introduction to the religion, culture and customs of Bhutan and covers the main highlights of the country in a sensible 'following the road' style - so you come across points of interest in the book in the same order as you come acoss them while in a hi-lux. There is an exhaustve and mouth-watering section on trekking, with a detailed advice concerning trekking health. It you are thinking about visiting this beautiful country, buying this book will convince you.

.Buttertea at Sunrise: A Year in the Bhutan Himalaya
City Travel Guides > Books > Bhutan
by: Britta Das

May 08, 2006
Britta brings this wonderful country to life with vivid pictures of the beautiful people and their way of life. There's such a sense of nostalgia in her writing and it's clear she loved her time there. This could be an advertisment for the VSO because even though she couldn't finish her placement, it's obvious that nothing short of very ill health could have torn her away. Her book is uplifting and warm and well worth reading.

.Beyond the Sky and the Earth: A Journey Into Bhutan
City Travel Guides > Books > Bhutan
by: Jamie Zeppa

May 01, 2000
Jamie writes wonderfully well, and her honest account of her life and love in Bhutan deserves to be read by many. Not only does she describe and learn from her own experience, she also makes important connections, from how Bhutanese children view rubbish as treasure, and her comments about the environment, to her love for a Bhutanese man and her own deepening Buddhist faith. From Jamie: 'I can see only what I have now, this view and the dark bright land below'. Her book helps us too see more clearly, and for that reason is worth reading even for those who don't travel to Bhutan. Sequel please!
