Bhutan

If we had to plan a perfect day in our favorite Himalayan destination, it would start with a helicopter journey to Bumdra at first light. Trekking above misty valleys, you take in terraced fields, fluttering prayer flags, and snow-capped peaks. At its end? A private dinner at Changangkha Lhakhang, the region’s oldest temple. April is ideal for Bhutan — crisp days, clear skies, and blossoming rhododendrons make it the perfect time to experience the country’s serene landscapes and rich culture.
