Bhutan is located between the southern boundaries of China and northern boundaries of India in the eastern Himalayas. Also popularly known as the Land of the Thunder Dragon, Bhutan offers a enticing and curious travel experience for tourists. It is a delta of a preserved Buddhist country and warm hospitality of the Dragon Kingdom people. Although the government applies a very cautious approach in its tourism industry, tourists seem to grow in number every year. Read on to know what makes Bhutan an interesting place to visit for your next travel adventure.

Home of the golden monkeys

Golden Langur monkeys are one of the most popular sights in Bhutan. They can commonly be sighted in the town of Trongsa and the foothills of Bhutan’s mountain valleys. Golden monkeys are rare animals that can only be found in Bhutan and northern India. Its golden and creamy white fur makes it an attractive sight-seeing addition on trekking and driving trips around Bhutan. Golden monkeys are classified as endangered specie.

Valley and mountain trekking

Bhutan is also a haven for trekking and mountain climbing. You can find the great Lunana summit in northern part of Bhutan for mostly extreme trekking and climbing. Moving around the different towns and villages in Bhutan will require you to climb and drive along steep roads. Since 90% of the population’s livelihood is on agriculture, moderate hikers could enjoy the panoramic view of rice paddies and mountain ranges. One interesting summit to visit is the Chomolhari Mountain which offers an enticing mountain trek adventure. It is Bhutan’s sacred mountain along the borders of Tibet. Bumthang Valley is also a nice place to hike with its magnificent view of Jakar village.

Dzong and ancient ruins

A large number of mystical and historical ancient ruins are a curious fact about Bhutan. The country is filled with quite a number of Dzong that houses Buddhist monks and magnificent Buddha statues. Wangdiphodrang Dzong, Tiger’s Nest, Trongsa Dzong are just the few places to mention which can give a unique and distinct archeological appreciation that only Bhutan can offer. It is also neat to have the famous Bhutan stamps as a remembrance of these famous Buddhist temples. Monks and large Buddha statues also add to Bhutan’s mysterious appeal.

Festivals

Festivals are celebrated all year round in Bhutan. The festivals reflect colorful masks and the rich Bhutan culture. Dances are performed by the Buddhist monks to protect the valleys and ward off evil spirits. Colorful clothes and pieces of jewelry are usually flaunted during carnivals. Buddhist festivals are the time for the conserved religious Buddhist followers to celebrate and socialize.

Another must-try in Bhutan is indulging in the chili-filled Bhutanese cuisine and yak butter beer as these will complete any visit in Bhutan.

The Iberostar Varadero is new, and Ibersostar bring their massive European reputation to Cuba and add to it. Here you will be right on the beautiful pristine beach and 20 minutes from downtown Varadero, and 40 minutes from the airport.

It is not only an all inclusive resort, but they do food 24 hours a day, which if you have hungry teenagers makes it a perfect place for a family beach vacation.

In terms of what the Iberostar Varadero offers, then the 386 rooms are all in eleven 3-storey buildings.

The rooms are large and air conditioned with a balcony or terrace, Satellite TV, and full bathroom. If you book a suite, then the room facilities are the same except there is a sitting area.

There is one buffet restaurant, and three a la carte restaurants featuring Japanese, Meditteranean, and Cuban Cuisine, where you will need a reservation, and dress code applies. You need to know that some restaurants aren’t open all the time, and you may find the number of times you can eat in them has constraints.

Buffets do tend to be quite bland, but the food in the a la carte restaurants is excellent. The buffets however are ideal for a family vacation where children tend not to have the exotic tastes of their parents.

The all inclusive family vacation element is well catered for with loads to do to keep particularly the slightly older child occupied, and of course the parent who doesn’t want to just lie on a sunbed imbibing the great range of all inclusive drinks whilst enjoying the beachfront position.

The all inclusive activities include, windsurfing, catamarans, kayaking, tennis, water polo, archery, beach volleyball, pool tables, table tennis, and for the 4-12 year olds there is a Kid’s Club, games room, and pool.

The adults in the family are more likely to be interested in the Aerobics, dance lessons, and a daily activities program, and the nightly entertainments, and then teenagers and parents can enjoy the disco.

There is a very high satisfaction rate, and there are very good reasons for naming the Iberostar Varadero as not only the best all inclusive, but in fact the best resort in Cuba.

The kind of comments heard include the attentiveness of the staff, and the service supplied. The beautiful beach, kept clean daily, the huge pool with swim up bar, Jacuzzi and water toys for all to use free of charge. A good description is luxury, comfort, elegance, with top class food in the a la carte restaurants.

Unlike other all inclusive resorts, there are top quality brands available at the Iberostar Varadero.

More than anything else, because obviously the facilities are what you would expect from a five star resort, it is how well all the staff carry out their functions, that guests remark on most frequently. Bearing in mind the shortages of what we would call basics in Cuba, it is a kindness to tip them well, leave toiletries behind when you go for them to take home and use.

You will have a great family all inclusive family vacation here at the Iberostar Varadero, always providing you don’t mind a bit of noise from the various entertainments. Good value, beachfront, and Iberostar at its best.

A very popular trend in the wedding industry is the destination wedding. A destination wedding is essentially a small celebration that is attended by the bride and groom’s closest friends and family. The celebration and reception are held at this destination whether it is the beach or another country. Destination weddings are more like group vacations, and many times, they may cost less than a traditional wedding because of discount vacation packages that are available at many travel agencies.

Although it may be difficult for all of your guests to make it to your wedding, you should still send them all an invitation. Remember, while there are discount vacation packages available, many people may not be able to afford the trip or get the time off from work.

First, when you are planning a destination wedding, it is imperative that you spread the word with ample time since your guests may not be arriving locally. When travel arrangements are required, it is best to provide as much notice as possible. Typically, wedding invitations are sent out 4 to 6 weeks before the event and with a destination wedding, you may want to send out a “Save the Date” card as far in advance as possible. Anywhere from a year to two months would be advisable.

When considering the wording for your destination wedding invitation, it is important to include the full range of dates for the event. Simply say what you would on any other invitation, but remember to include the full address of the location. However, popular wording for destination wedding invitations can primarily be dictated by the location. Many couples use small, whimsical poems to introduce their guests to the prospect of the destination wedding.

A destination wedding invitation should also include concise information on accommodations. 

This is common in traditional wedding invitations as well, but it is more important for a destination wedding because guests may have to travel and obtain lodging. So, if you have made special dinner reservations, blocked out a number of hotel rooms at the resort (usually for a discounted price for guests), or have made any other arrangements for other special amenities, it is wise to include it in the invitation. The general rule is to include a separate piece of card stock or stationary per each piece of information. Always include this information in the same envelope as the original invitation.

Because wedding guests want to dress appropriately, even for a destination wedding, it is important to include the dress code within the invitation as well. For example, if the bride is going to wear a beach wedding dress without shoes, it is a good idea to let the guests know, or to mention that something like flip-flops may be appropriate for the sandy and wet location. If the wedding is taking place at a mountaintop resort as a formal event, it is also a good idea to let the guests know what they should be wearing. This not only helps everyone feel comfortable at the event, but it also gives everyone an idea of what they need to pack.

When it comes to the wedding RSVP for a destination wedding, you must allow extra time for your guests to respond. This is why is it important to remember to send “Save the Date” cards and other important information out as early as possible. Remember, while a lot of planning goes into the destination wedding event itself, the guests have their own significant amount of planning to consider as well.

These important elements must all be included in the destination wedding invitation. But remember, because this is a destination wedding, a lot of fun can be had designing the invitations! Think about the location of the wedding and try to implement that into the overall look, theme, and feel of the invitation. A prime example of a popular beach destination wedding invitation choice is to include colors such as blue, yellow, and green along with a tropical design. Perhaps the invitations could be embellished with seashells or have a palm tree design. A wedding taking place on a cruise ship may have a sailing theme to it, adorned with anchors and nautical symbols.

Getting married in a location that is not local is always a lot more work than planning a wedding at home. However, a destination wedding can be just as magical, when the proper planning goes into it. The destination wedding invitation is the first glimpse of what your guests may be expecting at your wedding. Be sure to design them with the fun of the destination in mind, but also with all relevant information so that your friends and family are able to join you. Destination weddings allow you to be creative when planning the event and you do not have to worry about sending out any formal invitations. This provides many options available and it allows you to decide what works best for your destination wedding.

Otherwise people may suffer with chaos what to see and what to not, where to go and where to not. So, it is very necessary to decide what types of destinations you want to visit in India and what is your interest?

It is the perfect example of cultural heritage of India. And how tourists can forget to visit the magnificent monuments of Rajasthan, if they have interest in cultural heritage and art & architecture of India? I think Rajasthan India tours can be one of the best options for tourists who are interested in Indian cultural heritage. There are several magnificent monuments (forts, palaces, Havelis, temples, etc) in Rajasthan – the royal land of kings.

Tourists who are interested in beach tours of India; there are pristine beaches of Goa and Kerala. Goa and Kerala have some of most beautiful beaches in the world. Tourists from all over the world visit the beautiful palm fringed exotic beaches of this country and treasure delightful memories. Hill stations of India also very popular among tourists from all around the world. Hill station tourism India is especially popular among honeymooners or newly wedded couples. Verdant hills stations of south and snow capped hills of Himalayan hills provide couples sheer romantic opportunity to couples. I think hill stations like Shimla, Manali, Ooty, Munnar, Dharamshala, Dalhousie, Dehradun, Darjeeling, etc can be best options for honeymoon in India.

Wildlife Expedition, Adventure & sport options, backwater tourism & houseboat stay, monsoon tourism, etc are also worth enjoying & deserving on India visit.
