Country List World Factbook Home The World Factbook Bhutan Introduction Bhutan Background: In 1865, Britain and Bhutan signed the Treaty of Sinchulu, under which Bhutan would receive an annual subsidy in exchange for ceding some border land. Under British influence, a monarchy was set up in 1907; three years later, a treaty was signed whereby the British agreed not to interfere in Bhutanese internal affairs and Bhutan allowed Britain to direct its foreign affairs. This role was assumed by independent India after 1947. Two years later, a formal Indo-Bhutanese accord returned the areas of Bhutan annexed by the British, formalized the annual subsidies the country received, and defined India's responsibilities in defense and foreign relations. A refugee issue of some 100,000 Bhutanese in Nepal remains unresolved; 90% of the refugees are housed in seven United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) camps.

Bhutan Video Links Documentary I Loan I Home I A note regarding films on Bhutan: The government of Bhutan imposes heavy tariffs on visitors (about $200 per day) and a minimum royalty fee of $10,000 on filmmakers. As a result, there have been very few films created that focus specifically on Bhutan. Documentary Films on Bhutan in the AEMS Database http://www.aems.uiuc.edu Particularly relevant titles : (Reviewed titles are followed by a link to the review in the AEMS Database) Bhutan: Gross National Happiness This short (10 minute) video's title refers to this small country's king's famous doctrine, " We are not interested in gross national product, but in gross national happiness." This policy has driven Bhutan along its own unique path which embraces technology but questions the value of unbridled economic progress.

You are in Geography of Bhutan Bhutan lies in the eastern Himalayas sandwiched between India and China. The country is divided into three major regions: plains and river valleys in the south; a mid-Himalayan range in the center; and the major peaks of the Himalayas ranging from 14,000 to 24,000 ft. above sea level in the north. While the peaks are covered with snow throughout the year, and have a sub-arctic climate, the valleys in the southern and central regions enjoy a temperate climate. The southern plains and foothills are humid and subtropical. The Bhutanese call their country Druk Yul, which translates as Land of the Thunder Dragon. It takes its name from the Himalayan storms that rage through the region, sounding like the thunder of mighty dragons. Other natural hazards include landslides caused by monsoon rains and melting glaciers which are a major source of fresh water but which contribute to the flooding of rivers along with the monsoon. Bhutan has four major river systems: the Drangme Chhu; the Puna Tsang Chhu, also called the Sankosh; the Wang Chhu; and the Amo Chhu. Each one of them flows out of the Himalayas headed south through the Duars to join the Brahmaputra River in India. From here, the rivers pass through Bangladesh where the Brahmaputra joins the Ganges to eventually flow into the Bay of Bengal. Thus Bhutan is a landlocked country with no viable access to the sea.

Bhutan, A hidden Himalayas Kingdom Introduction: Bhutan is an extraordinary place hardly touched by the hands of time. Nestling in the heart of the great Himalaya, it remained in self-imposed isolation for centuries, aloof from the rest of the world. The environment is pristine, the scenery and architecture are awesome, the people are hospitable and charming, and the culture unique in its purity. Only a lucky few thousand people, who can afford to spend more than two hundred dollars a day, get to visit the kingdom of Bhutan in a year. The Royal Government of Bhutan has adopted a very cautious approach to the development of tourism in the kingdom in an effort to avoid the negative impacts of tourism on the culture and the environment. All tourists must travel on a pre-planned, prepaid, guided package tour. Independent travel is not permitted. All visa applications must be channeled through the Tourism Authority of Bhutan (TAB) from a selected tour operator. With notification of approval and receipt of full payment, visas are issued when you arrive in the country at the entry points, either Paro airport or Phuentsholing (land entry)..

About Us Contact Us Geography Bhutan Facts Tourist destinations Cultural Heritage Natural Heritage Government ... Maps The princely Kingdom of Bhutan is a landlocked country, about 300 km long and 150 km wide encompassing an area of 46,500 square kilometers. Located between longitude 88 45’ and 92 10’ East and latitudes 26 40’ and 28 15’ North in the Eastern Himalayas, it is bounded by India in South and South-West and Tibetan autonomous region of China in the North and North-West respectively. Virtually the entire country is mountaineous, and ranges in elevation from 100m along the indian border to the 7,554m Kulha Gangri peak on the Tibetan border. These two extremes frame a landscape which stretches from sub-tropical to arctic like conditions. The maximum East-West stretch of the country is approximately 300 km and north-South about 150 km. Physiography Talking in geomorphologic terms, Bhutan is distinctively divisible into three lateral zones from South to North. Incidentally, this zonation is more or less applicable to meteorological, ethnographical and geographical divisions of the country. The Great Himalaya Extending from Mt. Chomolhari (7,314m) in the West to Kulha Gangri (7,554m) near the center point of the northern border between Tibet and Bhutan, this region is virtually a snow-wilderness zone where almost 20% of the land is under perpetual snow. This zone is represented by alpine meadows and perpetually snow bound high summit of the Great Himalayan range.
