Botanical Tour
Bhutan has been listed as one of the ten hot spots
of biological diversity in the world. With 72% of
its total land area under forest cover; Bhutan is
home to one-fifth of the world’s plant species and
two thirds of the most endangered species of plants
and animal. The Bhutanese seasons are reflected in
full color by flowers and plants, which cover the
mountainside. Research has shown that Bhutan’s
forest is host to more than 5500 species of plants
and 675 species of birds. There are 300 species of
medicinal plants and over 600 species of orchids
including another 50 species of rhododendron. You
can see flowers and plants but the central
attraction of this package is a glimpse of how the
Bhutanese society value and respect nature and live
in harmony with it based on the spiritual and
religious beliefs. This is not a tailor made
program, this package is designed after receiving
the expression of interest by the clients.
