Have you ever heard of BHUTAN? It's a tiny country of 800,000 people, sandwiched between India and China in the Himalayan mountains.
I arrived here in Bhutan just 2 days ago, and it has REALLY fascinated me in terms of cleanliness, friendliness and natural beauty.
Bhutan is unique. Bhutan is innovative. Bhutan takes great measures to protect their cultural identity and natural environment, which consists of 72% forest.
There are many other things that Bhutan does, which puts them in another league when compared to the rest of the world.
BHUTAN IS THE WORLD'S ONLY COUNTRY WHO:
- has banned the sale and consumption of tobacco
- absorbs more CO2 than it gives out, making them 'carbon negative'
- largest export is renewable energy
- measures their country's prosperity by happiness, not wealth
- can sentence you to life in prison for killing an endangered animal
Protecting their environment has had a positive correlation with the happiness of its people -- Bhutan consistently ranks as the happiest country in Asia and top 10 in the world overall. Maybe the rest of the world should take Bhutan's lead?
In this video, I did my best to sum up Bhutan in less than 4 minutes. This will be the first of 5 (possibly 6) videos on the country. Stay tuned to learn more!

I have friends From Bhutan studying in India, they’re cool friendly and respectful
@@Lorddonen lol its the only country with dragon wales doesn't count as country
Zellow Wales actually is a country
Love from India dude, rock it here. Live it here. We're one.
Very respectful country and their King too so cool kind and humble.. We are with you all.. Jai Bharat.
Same here 🌸🌸❤️❤️She is studying with me in gujarat and we are best friends 💕💕
I saw the prime minister of Bhutan delivering a speech at TED Talks, and that's how I learned that Bhutan is more than just a country whose thriving, but also a country that tries to respect nature, preserve culture, and valuing their citizens. I have been admiring this country since I saw a drama in our country shoot in Bhutan. I really hope every country would do the same.
Thank you really good words from you about Bhutan🙏🙏🙏
How about you go beyond the propaganda by the Bhutanese government and research about their ethnical cleansing! You will see country “valuing their citizen.”
Because of Buddhism
_What a peaceful country_
Buddhism vs Islamic countries, the difference is clear
Kok lu lgi sih elah
@@warptrotter cause they chased the rohingya out in myanmar
@@warptrotter Not necessarily its because they don't have oil. Nothing to do with religion. The Muslim countries were unfortunate to get the oil curse

Most Beautiful Bhutan country on earth... We indians can go to Bhutan without any passport or visa ...!!!! Long live India-Bhutan friendship .
@Ken Bugawisan haha true
Thank god that I can visit without paying $250 a day
I'm definitely gonna visit
@@nottsoserious not now..
Passport is mandatory for Indians also
True but Indians now need passport here in Bhutan🇧🇹 I am Bhutanese btw
@@thinleydorji5893 yes , you're right
Bhutan is exactly how the whole world should be. Close to culture, no need to fight, villages and towns surrounded by amazing and beautiful nature, and all this other amazing stuff Bhutan is. I look forward to see the country one day. Love from America! 🇺🇸❤🇧🇹
YOUR SO KIND TO MY "COutRy
Love Bhutan from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇹
Thank you ,love and prayers to all.
I have been to Bhutan via Assam Bhutan border without documents taking just verbal permission from army .. the moment you enter Bhutan you will realize how peaceful and serene Bhutan is .. the people there are helpful .. would love to someday visit Bhutan completely
all4 u lol that’s fucking chill yo!
@@freemind1229 for indians's Bhutan is just a part of our country, (kind of) because of 'Freedom of Movement'
I have watched Bhutan and its King and Queen on TV many times in Japan.
Because the royal family of Bhutan and the Japanese imperial family have a very good relationship and they have visited each other's country so many times.
Love Japan from India. beautiful place . lord budha
Of course the king and imperial famly must have continued relationship to thrive on citizens' sweat and blood.
@Lakshmi Rani Sarker lmao stop spreading negativity
@Lakshmi Rani Sarker what's your problem keyboard warrior?
Bhutan’s King also banned cigarettes, making Bhutan the only country in the world to do so. Authoritative Monarchy has its perks, Bhutan shows what’s possible when done right. Brunei shows what’s possible when done wrong.
Despite me being an Indian , I'm glad drew that you finally visited Bhutan . Literally one of the most picturesque and beautiful countries of the world.
Why do you say "despite being Indian"?
Al Denino Because most of the indians are too proud of themselves.
Al Denino we are proud of our neighbouring country...
Al Denino cuz India intend to ‘absorb’(invade) Bhutan like what they did to Sikkim. Under the control or what so-called ‘political effect’ of India, Bhutan even doesn‘t have diplomatic relations with most of the countries on the world like US and China.
You don’t need a tax
*As An Indian, I Really Really Love Bhutan And Proud To Have A Neighbour Like Bhutan* 🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳❤❤❤❤
Yeah, and as a Fil-Am, I love Bhutan, which makes me happy!
I love my India...and I want to protect Nepal and Bhutan...our brother countries... Giving them free Kolkata port and train...love and respect from india

Why arent every nation do this?
Rodigo Duterte yeah
Hahaha cuz it depends on the population and it's diversity and also class differences. Bhutan is a tiny country with scanty population. Its geographically landlocked and people are very small in number which can be easily monitored and governed by the King/Govt. It's not possible in other countries unless yeah we become THANOS
an index created by... you guessed it! Bhutan! 😂
Cs go giveaway Guy no per capita income is higher in india
Rodigo Duterte they were colonised that’s why haha
I am Indian so they wouldn't charge tourism tariff to me, I am glad that the relation of India and Bhutan are so good that if I would visit the Bhutan at some point in my life that would be not that expensive that it is to people other than the Indians and Bangladeshis.
Its ok unlike people from India , most of us can afford $250 per day its not that much . Its just that you guys are poor af

yeah same
I absolutely hate when people glorify Bhutan. Bhutan literally committed Ethnic cleansing of Nepali community. Over 100,000 Bhutanese Citizens of Nepali heritage were thrown out of Bhutan and had to seek refuge in Nepal. I met some of the refugees in Jhapa, Nepal and their story of how Bhutan treated them gave me nightmare for days.
Even with a lot of international pressure Bhutan refused to take the citizens back. As a result US, and some European countries accepted over 100,000 of them. As of today they are living in countries around the world.
In short, Bhutan has conducted crime against humanity and people should stop glorifying it.
That’s politics.
*This is not a hidden country*
*that is the world most happiest place*
If you want to go to a happy country and feel happy you have to pay 250$ day Visa. That is what they want to make tourists ''happy''. I will be very happy too with 250$ day and you?
@@albertocassinelli1218 shut up they are just trying to keep their culture and tradition alive and too many tourists WILL ruin that!
And are you from Bhutan?
@@albertocassinelli1218 indians don't need to pay that much
Indians don't have that much! Many people in India never seen 1$ in their life

And The King and Queen of Bhutan Had there Honeymoon in india.
Well your country is shitty why would they go there?

Bhutan in one sentence "This is how life is supposed to be lived"
Last december i visited this amazing country. Citizens of only three countries can get there without paying 250$ per day. Bangladesh, India & Maldives. I am lucky that i am from Bangladesh and could step oon Bhutanese soil without any visa.
The last Shangri la. the people are happy, simple and honest. I wish they will remain isolated from this cunning, brutal and selfish world. I am so obsessed with Bhutan that i will go there again and again
i feel the same
Same here. I really hope that Bhutanese people and their King can maintain their wisdom and honesty to protect them from this corrupt crazy cunning brutal and selfish world. God bless Bhutan. 🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹💛💛💛💛😊😊😊😊
Thanks God for this wonderful and peaceful country 🇧🇹😍

Bhutan is nature-loving country like Leh- ladakh and north east of india.
0:09 OMG HOW IS THAT BABY SO CUTEEE
And how he smiles seeing the camera! 😀
I've been there before, this country is the best place for Traveler and photographer, I recommend butan for your next stop, I think is the most stunning country in the world , this country is so underated , is like Hidden gems in Asia, love this country ❤️❤️✌️
Yes but it's absolutely necessary to keep this country like it is and to make sure that overtourism doesn't ruin it.
Thank you for your love...
The most peaceful country.
I always tell my friends about this unknown nation.
Western world should learn from Bhutan.
I've been hooked to This amazing Country Documentaries
No, cuz they gonna try to spread Christianity and colonize it
lol more like Indians need to learn the reason free visa wasn't Allowed to india anymore is you guys making bhutan dirty

Thank you, I'm adding this to my travel lists :)

Superb!

Bhutan is really amazing place...
Proud to be nepali and Bhutanese 🇳🇵🇧🇹
so, you love bhutan because "they make a strong effort to preserve their culture, their nature and their rituals", and people commenting the same BUT, if it's a western country doing same, it's racism and xenophobia. ye, that makes perfect sense! i guess only non-western countries can preserve their culture and rituals
@Bhutan did Ethnic cleansing of Hindus Not really since t'was kicking out lllegal immgirants and anti-nationals.
The methods by which people in the west usually propose involve denying people equal rights, so not the same.
@@xavierlauzac5922 bullsh*t. so for you, denying entry to people that will never assimilate or follow the law of the land is denying human rights? or denying the entry to people that decide to enter illegaly instead of following the legal route is denying human rights? what a joke. do you even know what human rights is?
enter a country illegaly is not a human right.
enter a country only to commit crimes is not a human right.
enter a country, criticize the culture of that country and try to change it is not a human right.
every country has the right to protect it's people, it's culture and it's way of life. just that libtards think that it is ok for any country in the world to do that except if it's a estern country. than it's racism. lols.
@@2leggedpirate265 99 percent of migrants are good, first of all. Second of all, I want culture to be treated like religion. Integration without assimilation. Just because international law doesn’t prohibit xenophobic policy, doesn’t mean it’s correct.
@@2leggedpirate265 and if multiculturalism is so evil, why is Mauritius so stable? It should be a mess of violence and instability by your standards.

Drew - youll find no bigger critic of the Western world than me but Bhutan has its serious issues too like the ethnic cleansing of the Lhotshampa people
I'm a Lhotshampa and it was kicking out lllegal immigrants and anti-antionals.
That’s politics, and it has no impact on tourism.
Actually one of the beautiful and safe country
It was back in 2012 when I first heard of this country (through Princess and I). Ever since then, it's been in my bucket list of places I should visit 💖 And now, as a budding environmentalist I've been more eager to visit Bhutan 😊 Thank you for this video!
Bhutan is very beautiful country...
The prime Minister of bhutan he is a very good man.he was an Bangladeshi medical student & as a Bangladeshi i'm proud of it
I love watching these videos then going to the country on the snap map to see what the citizens are doing right now! It’s so fun
3:32 all
I love how life in Bhutan is just very simple, peaceful, and not at all chaotic unlike many other well known areas(India, China, US, Europe, Japan, etc...). Everyone should be knowing and learning from Bhutan how life and the world should be.
FarCry 6 should make a game based on Bhutan.
MEN 101 it's going to be the same as in far cry 4
Bhutan is not violent like Nepal.
Few shots of Tomb raider games have been shot in the bhutan
The game would be illegal there
QuarioQuario54321 bhutan doesnt have that much gamers tho

Mmm i like their traditional clothes, seems warm and comfy
Kinda
i wish every country cared about the environment like they do
Bhutan just doesn't have population enough to have any negative impact on the Environment.
This is really odd, i was just thinking about bhtan for whatever reason, and then you uploaded a video on Bhutan!
i really like bhutan they're working hard to preserve their own culture and establishing simple life.
I really miss our beautiful country. Thanks for updating Mr.Drew. coming soon😍 excited
Facts: in Bhutan there is no such thing as homeless people.
If you lose your house you can go to the king and the king will give you a plot of land to build your house.
🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹🇧🇹
Because Bhutan practices ethnic cleansing to those who practices different culture, or those who raise voice for human rights and democracy aka dissidents. So lots of land/house/property remain of these people when they get Genocided/expelled.
0:36 "but unlike its chaotic neighbors" 🤣
0:09 that happiness
As a tourist, I felt that the hotels, taxis & souvenir shops try to rip you off at every step.
However, Bhutan is far ahead with their environmental protection, and their governmental policies which is what I admire about them. It is beautiful to see some of the attractions that they country had to offer.... Definitely worth visiting at least once.
