Land of the Thunder Dragon-Bhutan
Sojourn:Land of the thunder dragon
Decided to sojourn the "Land of the thunder dragon"
Seven of us started journey in comfortable wagon
Rode across the stretch till Jaigaon and entered thru Bhutan gate,
Awesome place Phuntsoling, small but immaculate
Impressed to see traffic discipline at this business town
Clean and tidy streets with no horn
Checked in to lodge for the overnight
Roamed the town for dinner and the sight
Morning queue for the Bhutan Entry pass
Managed system with no bias and bypass
Adventurous drive from Phuntsoling to Thimphu
Chukha hydel project at the riverside we passed thru
Stayed near clock tower and SAARC administrative building
Dzongs and Lhakhangs are major attractions for sight seeing
Perfect balance between traditional, development and modernization
Open spaces, vacant lands might be kept for future planning and expansion
Scenic view from Thimphu to Paro is comely
Reached a resort that made us feel homely
Mystique town along riverside was kind of a dalliance
Fresh memories while scribbling this reminiscence
A perfect destination for holiday and rest
Took us to hike afar the "Tiger's nest"
Climbed the slopes and stairs to reach Taktsang monastery
Indeed!It's a masterpiece crafted in the sixteenth century.
