You've probably heard of Bhutan... Yes, that small kingdom nestled in the Himalayas, which measures its wealth not in Gross Domestic Product but in Gross National Happiness. In Bhutan, harmony with nature and respect for Buddhist traditions take precedence above all else. If you travel to Bhutan and arrive at the airport, you'll immediately come face to face with the prime symbols of this way of life: King Jigme Khesar and Queen Jetsun Pema, portrayed in a magnificent portrait that warmly welcomes visitors. These young and beautiful monarchs are revered by the Bhutanese people. We were intrigued by this royal couple, who seem to have struck a rare balance between tradition and modernity...
