As a military enthusiast, I was struck by the unique blend of medieval fortress-like architecture and modern military infrastructure in Bhutan, where ancient traditions meet contemporary counter-insurgency strategies in a small but fiercely independent nation that has managed to maintain its sovereignty despite being surrounded by larger powers.

Bhutan was a surreal and enchanting oasis in the Himalayas, where the stark beauty of towering mountains and pristine forests harmoniously coexisted with the warmth and hospitality of its people, leaving me with an indelible sense of peace and wonder.

Bhutan is a land where time stands still, where the air is sweet with the scent of juniper and cypress trees, and where the gentle hum of prayer flags carried by mountain breezes whispers secrets of happiness and contentment to its people.
