Eastern Bhutan Tour – 15 Days

Bhutan is divided into twenty districts, six of which are in the eastern part of the country: Trashigang, Trashi Yangtse, Mongar, Lhuentse, Samdrup Jongkhar, and Pema Gatshel. The eastern region sees far fewer tourists compared to the western regions, making it a perfect destination for those seeking a quieter and more authentic experience. Adventurous travelers venturing east will find uncrowded dzongs and temples, beautiful silks and embroidery, and lush forests teeming with birds.

Although food and accommodation options are modest and simple, reflecting the region’s remoteness, the eastern part of Bhutan is surprisingly densely populated. Many residents live in remote settlements high above the roads or in isolated valleys. While the east is gradually opening up to tourism, it remains a frontier for adventure travel in Bhutan.
