Before
visiting Bhutan, I had traveled extensively around Kashmir to the west of the
Himalayas and throughout much of Nepal. In other words, I had visited most of
area along the southern edge of the Himalayan range except for this small
country of 45,000 square kilometers sandwiched in between China and India.
I wanted
to see Bhutan, but to enter the county is not easy for any tourist from any
foreign country.
