Located in the eastern part of the Himalayas, Bhutan is the only remaining Buddhist Kingdom of the world. The visitors to the country witness not only the grandeur of the natural surroundings but the rich sense of culture and tradition that bind the kingdom together to a more spiritual life than the worldly comforts modern people seek. When travelling to Bhutan you could consider a stay at an award winning hotel such as Uma by COMO Hotels and Resorts. They offer a wide range of activities such as archery, water rafting and horse riding for their guests to take part in.
Try your hand at the national sport of the country, Archery while staying at one of the hotels. If you are a beginner who loves the sport you can learn the techniques at an archery field or visit many tournaments taking place in the country and be a spectator of the colourful and high spirited competitions. You could also go white water rafting under the guidance of adventure specialists, down the routes of Mo Chu and Samdinkha graded as intermediate rapid routes. Rafting along these particular routes will allow you to enjoy the stunning valleys in a completely different outlook. Explore the beauties of the country side as you go on a bike ride that is recommended for your level by experienced guides ranging from challenging mountain rides to a downhill free wheel journey. Consider going on horse ride to the Tiger’s Nest Monastery during your stay, its ideal for children as the ponies are quite small in Bhutan.
