Capital of Bhutan
Bhutan, a small country located in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, has a population of only about 700,000 people and an area of about 38,000 square kilometers. However, the country is known for its unique customs and high national happiness.
Bhutan's economy is largely dependent on agriculture and tourism. Although the country's GDP per capita is relatively low, its national happiness index is consistently among the highest in the world. The Government of Bhutan has been committed to the concept of Gross National Happiness (GNH), which emphasizes balanced development in four aspects: social, economic, environmental and cultural.
Bhutan's customs are also very unique. The country has a rich cultural heritage and traditions such as Buddhism, Tibetan medicine, handicrafts, etc. In addition, Bhutan's natural environment is also very beautiful, with magnificent mountains, forests and rivers, which attract many tourists to visit.
Bhutan's relationship with China is also very close. The two countries have close cooperation in political, economic, cultural and other fields. Bhutan was also one of the first countries to recognize and support the sovereignty of China's Tibet Autonomous Region. But currently Bhutan has no diplomatic relations with China.
Bhutan is a country full of charm and uniqueness, whether it is its customs, economic development, or national happiness, it is worth knowing and learning.
