Bhutan The Happiest Place on Earth (CNN Documentary)
Bhutan tries to maintain its inner contentment and the title of The Happiest Place on Earth.
From local news and sports reporter to correspondent on ABC's Good Morning America and Nightline, Bill Weir has taken a varied path in his journalism career. Another turn came when he joined CNN in 2013 to develop original programming, giving birth to The Wonder List. In hourlong episodes, Weir travels with cinematographer Philip Bloom to five continents to tell stories of extraordinary people, places, cultures and creatures, which are at a crossroads. In a world of rapid change, how is the intrusion of modernization, climate change and tourism affecting the Galapagos, the Greek island Ikaria, the French Alps, the Dead Sea, the Florida Everglades, India, Venice, and Vanuatu, an island chain in the South Pacific? In 2050, will there still be tigers in the wild? Will the Taj Mahal still be standing? Will there still be Alps to climb and ski? We set out to create time capsules of places we all agree are precious, Weir says.

- Bhutan measures Happiness over Wealth.
- All citizens of Bhutan have to wear national dress
- Bhutan is the only Carbon Negative Country in the World
- Bhutan has no traffic lights
- Bhutanese believe the phallus protects them from evil
- The Visa cost to visit Bhutan is $250 per person per day
The Happiest Country on Earth Revealed! | My Bhutan Road Story
Traveling to Bhutan was always a dream for me because Bhutan is a country that has given up the traditional development metric- GDP to give way to Gross National Happiness (or GNH) as the means to measure its development. It values human development indices more than other materialistic developments. A few days back, I happened to be traveling on the roads of Bhutan to explore this and this film is what I came back with. This is a music-based cinematic film, that I always wanted to create.
Places covered here include Thimphu, Paro, Tiger's Nest, Bumthang, Gangtey and Phobjikha valley overall. #bhutan #travel

Bhutan, often referred to as the Land of the Thunder Dragon, is a captivating kingdom nestled in the eastern Himalayas. Renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and unique approach to measuring national prosperity through Gross National Happiness (GNH), Bhutan stands out as the happiest country in the world.
One of the striking features of Bhutan is its stunning natural beauty. The country is adorned with snow-capped peaks, lush green valleys, and pristine rivers. The majestic Himalayan mountains dominate the northern regions, providing a picturesque backdrop to the tranquil monasteries and traditional villages that dot the landscape. Bhutan's commitment to environmental conservation is evident in its dedication to maintaining at least 60% forest cover, making it a haven for biodiversity and a model for sustainable development.
The heart of Bhutanese culture lies in its unique blend of tradition and modernity. The Bhutanese people take great pride in preserving their customs, as seen in their vibrant festivals, colorful traditional attire, and intricately adorned dzongs (fortresses). The influence of Buddhism is deeply ingrained in the fabric of Bhutanese society, with monasteries and stupas scattered across the country. The spiritual reverence and emphasis on mindfulness contribute significantly to the overall sense of well-being and contentment.
What sets Bhutan apart in the global landscape is its commitment to prioritizing happiness over material wealth. The concept of Gross National Happiness, introduced by the Fourth King of Bhutan, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, focuses on holistic development, encompassing psychological well-being, health, education, cultural diversity, and environmental sustainability. This unique approach to governance has garnered international attention, inspiring discussions on alternative models of progress and the pursuit of a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
Visitors to Bhutan are greeted not only by its scenic beauty but also by the warmth and hospitality of its people. The Bhutanese are known for their friendly and welcoming nature, making guests feel at home in this serene kingdom. Travelers have the opportunity to engage with local communities, participate in traditional ceremonies, and savor the distinct flavors of Bhutanese cuisine.
In conclusion, Bhutan's designation as the happiest country in the world is a testament to its commitment to balancing progress with tradition, material well-being with spiritual values, and environmental conservation with sustainable development. This enchanting kingdom invites visitors to experience a harmonious blend of natural wonders, cultural richness, and a profound sense of joy that resonates throughout the Land of the Thunder Dragon.

BHUTAN | Beautiful Destinations
There’s a place on earth, perhaps one of the last, where nature and humans exist as one; the government prioritizes happiness, and conservation of the land and wildlife is so important, laws are in place to protect it. Welcome to Bhutan, the last great “Shangri-La,” the last great oasis.
Entering into the grounds of Bhutan is like traversing into a dream. Time seems to slow. The wind breathes through the Himalayas, through the torn prayer-flags lining the high passes, and out through the breaths of chanting monks. Tigers creep through the backcountry, black-necked cranes glide above; the slow crawl of traffic weaves through one designated lane. Everything lives in one harmonious existence. This is a nation with people who welcome you like family. And for those fortunate enough to visit, it will feel like coming home.
ON THE KINGDOM OF BHUTAN
Landlocked by China, Tibet, and India, the Buddhist Kingdom of Bhutan finds its home nestled on the eastern edge of the Himalayas. The country is known for its dramatic and varying landscapes — vast forests, sweeping valleys, and snowy mountains — which span an area of almost 40,000 square kilometers. Ancient dzongs (fortresses) and ornamental monasteries, including that of the cliff-hanging Tiger’s Nest, are also stunning and well-known fixtures of the country. Culture, sustainability, and deeply-rooted consciousness are prominent values that cling to every aspect of the country and day-to-day life here.
ON THE COUNTRY'S ENVIRONMENTAL CONSCIOUSNESS
Bhutan's devotion to the environment lies at the root of everything. In 2008, the country created a constitution establishing that a minimum of sixty percent of the country’s land must always be covered by forests. Currently, more than seventy percent of the area is forested. Protection efforts extend to the land’s inhabitants as well; laws are in place making it illegal to hunt or trap wildlife. Thanks to these protections, red pandas, tigers, and almost 800 species of birds can thrive in Bhutan's rich biodiversity. As a result of these conservation endeavors, Bhutan is the only carbon-negative country in the world, meaning that it absorbs more carbon than it produces — four times more, in fact.
ON BEING THE HAPPIEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD
Bhutan is considered the “happiest country” in the world, based off an economic principle known as “Gross National Happiness” (GNH). The term was first coined in 1972 by the fourth king of Bhutan who wanted to ensure that the Bhutanese quality of life was given the same importance as the country's increasing development and growing economy.
So how do you measure happiness? The government surveys nine domains — categories that encompass wellbeing, culture, environment, education, and good governance — every few years and a single number, derived from further sub-indexes and indicators, is calculated based on the results. One incredible outcome of GNH is it shows that true, sustaining happiness is created by a sense of purpose. And while this index may only seem like data, it represents a set of values that guide citizens in their daily lives and the government in its policies. Other governing entities, like the U.N., have even begun to look to Bhutan to adapt some of its practices.
ON SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL (TO AND WITHIN THE COUNTRY)
Visitors are required to apply for a visa and book their travel through a tourism agency sponsored by the government. There is a $200 minimum visa fee per day which covers all costs including meals, accommodations, transport within the country, and a licensed Bhutanese tour guide.While some travelers may not be fond of being with a guide at all times, many find they prefer it. These highly equipped guides can set up excursions based on specific interests — hiking, food, culture, conservation, art — allowing visitors to craft more meaningful itineraries and create friendships and cultural exchanges with locals that may not have occurred otherwise. Think of these guides as guardian angels of the country and its guests.

Truthfully, I have never witnessed happier human beings than right here, in this lovely country called BHUTAN.
Instead of using GDP to measure their country’s wealth and prosperity, they use GNH - GROSS NATIONAL HAPPINESS. (Seriously, this is not a joke!!!)
The 4 pillars of GNH are:
- Sustainable development
- Environmental protection
- Cultural preservation
- Good governance
Together, these 4 pillars have been ingrained in Bhutanese society since 1974, when King Jigme Singye Wangchuck created it. GNH has revolutionized the way in which this country operates, going far beyond happiness of its people. It has led to Bhutan becoming one of the greenest countries in the world and a global leader in sustainability. It's the ONLY country to have negative carbon emissions. This means that its forests absorb more carbon dioxide each year than its sources of pollution (factories) give out. How amazing is that?
There is so much to admire about Bhutan, and it all stems from Gross National Happiness.

Bhutan | The happiest country on earth
Bhutan, a Buddhist kingdom on the Himalayas’ eastern edge, is known for its monasteries, fortresses (or dzongs) and dramatic landscapes that range from subtropical plains to steep mountains and valleys. In the High Himalayas, peaks such as 7,326m Jomolhari are popular trekking destinations. Paro Taktsang monastery (also known as Tiger’s Nest) clings to cliffs above the forested Paro Valley.
Amazing Bhutan: Free Healthcare, No Homeless People, No Traffic Lights
This mysterious and picturesque country located between India and China was closed for tourists until 1974. Today, everyone who’s ready to go through a lot of formalities and has enough money can visit Bhutan. Ans even though the borders are open, the King still tries to restrict the number of tourists using many different methods.
This is a country that decided to measure national happiness, has completely free healthcare, and nobody living on the streets. Sounds unbelievable, but this is all true about Bhutan, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. So, wanna know why all the people who live in Bhutan are so happy? Let's find out more about their traditions and numerous bans.

SUMMARY:
- If a person loses their home, they just need to go to the king and he’ll give them a plot of land where they can build a house to live in and plant a garden to eat from.
- Each Bhutanese resident has the right to free medical care. The country’s Ministry of Health has made it their goal to become “A nation with the best health.”
- The Bhutanese people take their traditions and unique culture very seriously, and the king took great measures to protect his people from outside influences.
- Speaking of traditions, Bhutanese people are required to wear traditional clothes in public. This nationwide dress code has existed for over 400 years.
- In 2010, the king enacted a law prohibiting the cultivation, harvest, and sale of tobacco, making Bhutan the first country in the world with a total ban on tobacco. It’s impossible to buy it there, and you can’t smoke in public areas.
- Bhutan is really concerned about ecology and nature. According to a local law, at least 60% of the country’s total area must be covered with woods.
- The most popular ingredient in almost every Bhutanese dish is chilies. The Tourism Council even notes “Bhutanese people would not enjoy a meal that was not spicy.”
- You can only go to Bhutan in groups of 3 or more. All documents and visas are issued by a state-appointed company.
- All property and belongings like their homes, cattle, and land go to the eldest daughter, not son. Men are expected to earn their own fortunes.
- It’s already illegal to import or use any chemical products there whatsoever. Everything they use is cultivated within the country and is all-natural.
- Not every pilot can maneuver between mountaintops and land on a 6,500-foot-long highway right by people’s houses. Add strong winds to the challenge, and you’ll understand why take-offs and landings are only allowed during daylight hours. And there are only 8 pilots in the world that can do this.
- If you visit Bhutan, you may fall in love with the land, but try not to fall for a local or else you’ll get your heart broken. It’s prohibited to marry foreigners.
- In 2008, the Gross National Happiness Committee was formed in Bhutan to take care of the people’s inner peace.
- All the road signs in Bhutan are drawn by hand. Thiumphu, the country’s capital, is the only one in the world that has no traffic lights at all.
- Bhutanese people love to decorate their homes. They draw birds, animals, and different patterns on the walls, making them look like real-life gingerbread houses.

Revealing Life In Bhutan: The Country Of Most beautiful Monasteries. Bhutan Travel
Bhutan, happiest country in the world renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, distinctive culture, and the title of the happiest country in the world, is a small Himalayan gem with a unique blend of tradition and tranquility.
The video is presented by The Travel Trails Bhutan.
But is Bhutan truly the most isolated country globally?
The answer lies in the nuanced definition of isolation. While Bhutan isn't the most physically isolated nation, boasting borders with China and India and accessibility by air and road, it prides itself on cultural and political seclusion.
The Bhutanese government adopts a high value, low volume tourism policy, restricting the annual number of visitors and imposing stringent regulations on their activities.

Bhutan officially the Kingdom of Bhutan is a landlocked country in South Asia. Located in the Eastern Himalayas, it is bordered by China's Tibet Autonomous Region in the north, India in the south, the Sikkim state of India and the Chumbi Valley of China's Tibet in the west, and Arunachal Pradesh state of India in the east. Bhutan is geopolitically in South Asia and is the region's second least populous nation after the Maldives. Thimphu is its capital and largest city, while Phuntsholing is its financial center.
The independence of Bhutan has endured for centuries, and the territory was never colonized in its history. Situated on the ancient Silk Road between Tibet, the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, the Bhutanese state developed a distinct national identity based on Buddhism. Headed by a spiritual leader known as the Zhabdrung Rinpoche, the territory was composed of many fiefdoms and governed as a Buddhist theocracy. Following a civil war in the 19th century, the House of Wangchuck reunited the country and established relations with the British Empire. Bhutan fostered a strategic partnership with India during the rise of Chinese communism and has a disputed border with the People's Republic of China. In 2008, it transitioned from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy and held the first election to the National Assembly of Bhutan, that has a two party system characterizing Bhutanese democracy.
The King of Bhutan is known as the Dragon King. Bhutan is also notable for pioneering the concept of gross national happiness. The country's landscape ranges from lush subtropical plains in the south to the sub-alpine Himalayan mountains in the north, where there are peaks in excess of 7,000 metres (23,000 ft). The highest mountain in Bhutan is the Gangkhar Puensum, which is also a strong candidate for the highest unclimbed mountain in the world. There is also diverse wildlife in Bhutan.
In South Asia, Bhutan ranks first in economic freedom, ease of doing business, and peace; second in per capita income; and is the least corrupt country as of 2016. However, Bhutan continues to be a least developed country. Hydroelectricity accounts for the major share of its exports.[11] The government is a parliamentary democracy. Bhutan maintains diplomatic relations with 52 countries and the European Union, but does not have formal ties with the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. It is a member of the United Nations, SAARC, BIMSTEC and the Non Aligned Movement. The Royal Bhutan Army maintains extensive military relations with the Indian Armed Forces.
