Terton Travel Bhutan
A Terton is an individual who reveals or discovers ancient Buddhist relics or texts. True to our name, we at Terton aim to facilitate every one of our guests with a special experience of discovery and fulfilment while absorbing the culture and beauty of our heritage. Nine years ago, Bhutan’s sole international actor and national icon, Kelly Dorji, had a dream about the term ‘Terton’. He immediately set out on a mission to fulfil his recognition of the 5 most famous Terton Kings. Kelly and his team consisting of some of the most experienced experts in the Bhutanese hospitality and travel business personally direct Terton Travel Bhutan.
Visiting Bhutan has, for most outsiders, been a dream; and since Bhutan opened its doors in 1971, many foreigners aspired to make this ‘once in a lifetime’ journey to the ‘last Shangrila’. Today, discerning travellers increasingly choose Bhutan as a holiday destination because it is still natural in its beauty. It offers a true travel experience balancing modern development with conscious Buddhist values.
The Kingdom of Bhutan is a ‘precious jewel’ tucked away in the Himalayas between India and China. It has never known foreign rule and till today remains unscathed in the preservation of its culture. Explore this pristine environment with its awe-inspiring landscape and refreshing climate through the simple hospitality of its people and its rich cultural heritage.
Altitudes range from just a few hundred meters above sea level, to dizzying heights that are among some of the highest peaks in the world. The flora and fauna of Bhutan offer some of the most diverse, exotic and rare species known to man. Almost 70% of Bhutan is covered in forests and it has a population of less than a million citizens. For the traveller who knows the value of escaping the ordinary and usual tourist destinations, Bhutan is the ideal choice.
