Royal stables Punakha

If you go to the royal stables, make sure you wear long track pants, better if they're the type that the seeds of plants can't stick to because my pants and socks and shoes had hundreds (i'm not exaggerating) of that damn weed (don't know what it's called)'s seeds and they made my skin soooo itchy!!!!

Sheep!

horses ponies and cows grazing peacefully. The walk's quite nice and scenic and not tough. Good way to work off a heavy lunch.

You can really feel the respect and love that Bhutanese people have for the royal family when you listen to them speak about the kings. When I hear of all the great deeds the royal family has done, even I feel huge respect for them. It's amazing how much can be done when a country has great leaders.

The past king's house wasn't very luxurious and grand, but was just a simple farm house. As Buddhists they don't attach so much importance to money and luxury items. And I was also amazed at how much Buddhism there is in how the country is governed. There's no killing so there's no farming animals to have them killed. Instead, they import meat. Fishing is also not allowed, unless you have a special licence. But even then you have to let any fish you catch free.

There's so many more amazing things about Bhutan that I can't list them all here.
