Heritage of Bhutan is mainly based on the ancient Tibetan culture and Buddhism.

With the terrain of Bhutan was not susceptible to external cultural influences. Long maintained a policy of fierce isolationism here, both cultural and economic, to preserve the heritage of the country and separateness. Even in the last decades of the twentieth century, only a few foreigners could visit Bhutan, making it successfully retained its traditions and customs.

The Kingdom of Bhutan is pending between the modern and the Middle Ages: ancient Buddhist monks translate texts on laptops, traditionally dressed archers using hatches, and a shot of lightweight aluminum alloy, while the far-sighted leaders strive to maintain a unique culture and environment of Bhutan intact.

Most people in Bhutan practice of Tantric Buddhism, which is reflected in all aspects of life. On the roof of each house also contained a white flag, indicating that the owner makes an effort to please the local goddess. Each valley or district has its own, a huge fortress known as the 'Jong', religious and administrative center of the area.

Hinduism - 23%

Islam - 4%

traditional ethnic religions - 0.5%

Pentecostal - 0.3%

Protestantism - 0.13%

Catholicism - 0.03%

Bhutan's local name means the Kingdom of the Dragon (Jul Print), and the inhabitants call themselves Print Pa. - thunder beings.

The status of both sexes and the division of labor

Traditionally, women in Bhutan have more rights than women in the cultures of neighboring countries - primarily the right to own land. The assets of each of the larger family is managed by his mother, which may assist another woman. Sometimes, this obligation is transferred to the sister, daughter or niece.

Women and men work together in a box. You can also run his own shop or business. Men take an active part in the home, often cooking, produce, and also fixing a clothing (but do not produce fabrics). In cities spreading more 'western' model - a man earns his bread, and the woman takes care of the house. Monks habit can don both sexes, although in practice women do it quite rarely.

Marriage

Marriages are concluded in accordance with the wishes of both parties, and divorce often occur. During the wedding ceremony the woman and the man exchanged the white scarves and drinking from the same cup. A marriage can be officially concluded when the couple lived together for at least half a year. According to tradition, the groom moves to the family home wives, but recently a resident of this depends more on where the household is needed more help at work.

Archery - national sport

The national sport of Bhutan is archery. Archery competitions are held regularly in most villages in the country. Each time an event is more than just sports, organized feasts, dances and songs, and even something like a cheerleading team made up of players' wives.

The government classifies 19 dialects dżonkgha. Lepcha is used in the west, tshangla in the east, and Nepali language in the south.

There is no accurate data as Bhutanese citizens actually speak English and to what extent is it opanowanego. However, in larger cities, there should be no problems with communication in that language.

Percentage of population literate in Bhutan is only 42.2% (56.2% men and 28.1% women). In children aged 14 years and younger, this share is 39.1%, in people aged years 1915-1959 56.9% au people over 60, only 4%.

The letter is called Dzongkha chhokey and is very similar to the letter from the Tibetan.

Among the people of Bhutan can be distinguished several major ethnic groups. Ngalop are numerically dominant (52%), professing Buddhism, the people living in the western part of the country. Their culture is closely related to Tibetan. East is inhabited mainly by people Scharchop, emerged from very frequent marriages of Hindu-bhutańskich. The rest of the population (15%) of the Nepalese people, most of which professes Hinduism.

Do not bring with them weapons, drugs and plants (!)

Do not take things from the country / souvenirs such as: antiques, objects of worship and anthropological research, manuscripts, paintings.

It should bring with us both the summer and warmer clothes (night temperatures fall in autumn to - 5 degrees). I do not think people who are going trekking - in this case need special equipment.

In addition, the supply of batteries, a flashlight (in the evening tend to be problems with electricity) and medications (if they are such that we must take on a regular basis, in Bhutan is only a few pharmacies.)

Health care in Bhutan is at a good level, but it is limited to hospitals and access to them can be difficult.

As far as vaccination is not an obvious order to take any steps toward this. However, the above. vaccination is strongly recommended.

In addition, the organism przeforsowywania be avoided during the first 2-3 days of stay due to the high altitude

The same goes for drinking too much alcohol.

Water before consumption (drinks preparation, brushing, or the preparation of ice) should be cooked, just like milk. Mineral water is widely available.

Meat and fish should be well-Fried / cooked before serving (no bloody steaks, sushi, Tartar!) And fruits and vegetables, cooked and peeled.

Bhutan is a very peaceful country that does not lead to any devastating wars with its neighbors. People are very open and friendly, and the only real threat might be ... mountains.

There is no risk of crime,. There is also no danger, although the conduct of the tourist does not differ from generally accepted standards.

The hotels are unlikely to have problems with running water - hot and cold. Conditions are also good. But we obtain in their own fold in the shower, towel, scissors, hygienic measures, and of course, first aid kit handy (I recommend a set of proven: slices, hydrogen peroxide, iodine, sterile gauze, tourniquet, aspirin, fervex, furagin , coal, smectę, lime, fatty ointment - the best in the scorch Bepanthen. Well Deteromycyna - but if someone were to grab something in the shower ..)

Among other things, why Bhutan is one of the favorites and most popular tourist destinations (as above)

However, those who choose to provide such a trip that was worth it ..

Please note that the flight to Bhutan must be booked 2-4 months in advance!

Network of air routes in Bhutan is not well developed (an airport situated in the valley much-needed experience to "maneuver" between the rocky slopes). Airlines, however, also arrange flights to Bangoku, New Delhi, Kathmandu, Kolkaty, Gaya, Dhaka and Yangon.

Buses are often crowded and very slow (due to route-curves over precipices kilkusetmetrowymi). The main route is from Phuentsholing to Thimphu, the Thimphu to Bumthang, Bumthang with the Tashigang with Tashigang to Samdrup Jongkar and Tongsa to Gaylegphug.

As a rule, but tourists do not use this means of transport.

The country is well-developed network of roads with a length of about 3.000 km. The average attainable speed is 40 km / h.

The main road leading north from Phuentsholing to Paro and western regions Timpho, and the road connecting the east and west of the country, the Pele La Pass and Thrumshing La Pass to the valley of central and eastern regions.

In the northern regions of the High Himalaya is not trafficked roads.

The central post office building is located in Thimphu, and this is one of the major tourist attractions. This is because for many years to print the stamps was a very serious item in the budget Bhutan. They are very beautiful, meticulously crafted and various topics.

This makes, however, that the letter from the so valuable stamp may not arrive ..

In addition, the post office may be mentioned the so-called "hard" currency.

In Bhutan drive on the left! In addition, "our" driver's license is not accepted, even international. While watching the cars on the narrow lanes over a cliff is no longer strange.

In addition to this - it is really expensive. Some of the souvenirs you can buy in Bhutan is available in Kathmandu for a fraction of that price as in Thimpu. Therefore, if you have to buy only what is absolutely not to obtain in other Himalayan countries - local textiles, the local outfit.

In terms of a variety of kitchen bhutańska not include the most famous cuisines of the world, but it is very interesting. To fully appreciate it must meet three conditions: like peppers, fat from meat and dried meat.

Bhutańczycy eat white or red rice. The latter is a particular species, though not as the end of the rice. Currently, rice is a staple food throughout the country, but have recently eaten mainly Bumthangu buckwheat, buckwheat cakes and exactly (balls, kepthang) or buckwheat noodles (puta), and reigned in the eastern regions of the maize. Fresh melted cheese (datsi) is administered as a sauce for a variety of vegetables, especially potatoes, mushrooms, asparagus ferns and foliage. Bhutańczy love very hot pepper, so before to try unfamiliar dishes you should ask whether they are very sharp and to try a small portion.

Favorite meat Bhutanese from the north is the meat of the yak, pork, beef and chicken, while in the south rather eat lamb. Meat is served both fresh and dried.

Hemadatsi - bell peppers in cheese sauce;

Ragou t-Food prepared with chopped meat, vegetables and spices;

Phagszapa - dried strips of fat pork, cooked as a ragout with a radish or turnip and dried red pepper;

Goudoma - bhutańska salad with scrambled eggs or eggs cooked with butter, pepper, fresh cheese, tomatoes and finely chopped onions;

Czurpi - a special white cheese cubes strung on a string, and the whole looks like a rosary. It is very hard (dried in the sun), produced in regions where there are plenty of yak. It is eating between meals, but note that it may be dangerous for the "niehimalajskich teeth! Bones are very hard and under no circumstances should they bite, but rather to suck for a few hours, but did not have much taste;

Sedeu - a rare type of cheese originating from the eastern part of Bhutan. Sells it in leather and a small number bukłakach added to the broth, resulting in a very tasty soup;

Momo - small dumplings with meat, vegetables or cheese;

Thukpa - soup served with dumplings (especially in winter);

Szahalc-stuffed meat pies;

Trimomo - pieces of bread baked steamed and served with soup;

Sweets practically do not exist here, except for Kabza - dry donut with different shapes, which is preparing for the holidays.

Something for those who proceed from the assumption that life is worth to try everything: small pieces of liver sprinkled with pepper powder, lungs filled with the fruit of prickly ash (or pepper syczuańskim, alloy pig stuffed with sausage and black pepper;]

Ara - very popular in central and eastern parts of the country's alcohol

Seudja - tea with butter and salt

Nadja - tea with milk and sugar

Czinta - jasmine tea (you can get it only in Thimphu, as well as green)

In all the larger stores can buy at an affordable price range and bhutańskiego Indian brand of beer (Red Panda and 1100), as produced in Bhutan whiskey, gin and rum. According to connoisseurs, whiskey is pretty good. There's no wine, but there are local spirits: Macaw, Chang, however, the conditions for their generation often leave much to be desired. Distillery in the valley Bumthangu produces at very affordable prices cider, cider, apple and peach schnapps, which is associated with schnapps.

Food gets in hotels, in the form of so-called. "Buffet", where everyone can try to what best suits him.

There are also restaurants, cafes and street stands where you can taste the regional specialties.

People who are not accustomed to unusual miewające kitchen or stomach problems, however, should remain the more expensive, but good-looking and hygienic premises.

There is no obligation to give tips, but it is also prohibited. If a tourist is particularly pleased with the work of the driver, concierge, maid or a guide there is no impediment to leave a few small, although this is generally included in the bill.

However, remember that when we leave a tip on the first day (counting in this way for better treatment), then we should leave it too last day.

Meatballs rice, eaten with the right hand always be immersed in a ragout, or eat with alternating pieces of meat or vegetables. Rice has never mixed with other dishes. Hot pepper makes often tweaks the nose and eyes, but it's just a sign that the meal has been properly seasoned. According to tradition do not serve desserts, and fruit eating between meals.

In hotels and restaurants for tourists, most of impending dishes is not as sharp as for the Bhutanese. They know very well know the forest and the extensive use of its fruits. They eat leaves of ferns, bamboo, mushrooms (the most known cocks and szilake), taro, yams, sweet potatoes, wild beans, banana flowers, buds, and even orchids and dried river algae. In addition to the dishes, accompanied by a cheese sauce, most meals polewanych sauce contains a little meat, and even small bones.

The traditional meal can not end without offering so-called. dorny. Dorn is a chewing tobacco (betel or areca), but in Bhutan; he was much more important than the means of supporting digestion. Offering someone Dorn, we show him friendship, it is a sign of our hospitality. Of course, you can buy already prepared tobacco in small paper rożkach, but his fans prepare it themselves, and this is associated with a real ritual: first draw a leaf out of the box, or pocket, looks at it from all sides and cleans, rubbing of clothing. Then the same box to draw areki walnut, which was already shelling. Using a nut with a spoon, gaining a little weight, calcium from the second box, then rubs it on the leaf, puts a walnut, rolled tobacco leaf and gives the other person or yourself to the delights.

Leaving aside social considerations, doma a substance toxic to the same extent as ordinary tobacco and harmful effects: loss of taste, throat irritation, tooth decay and gum, throat and stomach cancer, ulcers, not to mention the fact that adverse effects on the skin and causes unpleasant breath. The government now seeks to limit the use of homes, and the younger generations are consuming less and less.
