Thimpu, the capital of Bhutan surrounded by Green mighty mountains and protected
by Blessings of Buddha, yes it is .... when you are entering to Thimpu, you will witness
a giant Buddha statue ,and the city is lying under his lap...
Thimpu , Paro and Phunaka are the three major tourist attraction in Bhutan . Your Bhutan
trip will be incomplete if you don't sweat it out and track to the monastery which is
approximately 10,000 feet above the sea level called The Tiger's Nest. When you reach
to the top after trekking for almost 3 hours, you will feel an eternal divine happiness
which cannot be expressed by words, only you can feel it...
The Phunaka Dzong will take you to prehistorical period where you will witness
old architecture along with giant Buddha statue accompanied by the holy sound of the
bells which will make you feel that you are in a different planet all together.
Without much ado, I want to take you all to the journey of Bhutanese Cuisine.
The Cuisines of Bhutan are the perfect blend of simple ingredients and powerful flavours.
Ema Datshi is the National dish of Bhutan which usually served with red rice.
Ema Datshi or Kewa Datshi both have a creamy cheesy texture on the contrary Chicken Paa
(Bhutanese chili chicken) is a hot and spicy chicken dish flavored with red chilies and hot
spices.
Jasha Maroo is another popular dish of Bhutan which is basically Bhutanese version of
chicken stew which can be served with any kind of bread and rice.
Whenever I am traveling to any new destination I 'm always up for the local cuisines because
I believe the roots of every culture lies in their traditional cuisines.
