🏔️ BEAUTY of BHUTAN 🇧🇹

Considered to be the most mountainous country in the world, The Kingdom of Bhutan is nestled on the southern slopes of the eastern Himalayas and is landlocked between China to the north and the borders of four Indian states to the east, south and west. Viewed as a model for their proactive conservation initiatives, the country's commitment to both it's biodiversity and rich cultural heritage has remained intact since the mid-20th century.

With much of Bhutan still relatively unknown to the rest of the world, the now constitutional monarchy has come a long way as it wasn't until 1999 that television and internet was finally allowed. And most recently, on January 24, 2025, global superstar Ed Sheeran attracted nearly 24,000 people to the country's first-ever international concert that was held at the Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu. On the road for his Mathematics Tour that first launched in Dublin back in 2022, this historic show was proudly promoted by the government's tourism department in coordination with AEG Presents and One Fiinix Live.🎤

For anyone near Houston, TX that has ever wanted to visit Japan without breaking the bank, then you're in luck!

Despite going up against Star Alliance heavy-weights of both United and ANA, this affordable subsidiary of Japan Airlines makes getting to and from the Land of the Rising Sun all the more tangible.
