50 % of Bhutan's territory is covered by National Parks!!!! That is better than in Costa Rica!!!! I am very impressed!!!! This is an example to be followed by the whole World!!!! Greetings from Poland to The People of Bhutan!!! And great thanks to DW for making such an interesting doc!!!
I'm from Kolkata India, I travelled to Bhutan twice, all I can say is Bhutanese people are very kind and polite, much more than the Japanese. Lot's of love to my all Bhutanese brothers and sisters you all have good soul and a beautiful country to live. I wish to visit your place once more
Hi as I am from Bhutan especially from southern part of Bhutan, I want to thank you for capturing these profound beauty and reservoir of kindness of Bhutanese people on this beautiful project of yours. I know doctor tenzin and he said children are his ally, I’m one of his supported child that he saw goodness in me and now I’m here in New York all because of his support. Another one is sonam norzin , the world should know this man for his undying love for animal. Whenever i called him for any animal accidents, he always rescued them without any hesitation. I bow down to his undying compassion and I aspire to work like him one day. Kindest human I have ever met Even the shamanism in southern Bhutan is so unheard. I have witnessed so many things that people of modern world might feel it’s unrealistic but people in Bhutan they know they have seen something beyond human’s comprehension despite me being logic centric I’m crying a river because I related to every bits of this frame, places, people! I thank all the people in this production for holding such profound information about southern Bhutan. This documentary is not just a video you watch for 40minutes but an emotion and the sentiments of Bhutanese people. I thank you all for capturing this part of Bhutan Love, Puspa Ghalley
Thank you, DW for showcasing Eastern and Southern Bhutan which are really overlooked compared to the rest of the country. As a Southern Bhutanese myself, this documentary really made me happy😊 Proud to be a Bhutanese 🇧🇹
Additionally, I couldn’t watch this program without lots of tissues for wiping out my tears! Appreciated with DW team for creating what a wonderful documentary.
Some additional context here. The people in the documentary can speak multiple langauge. For example the volunter from Jangsa speaks Dzongkha, English and Nepali. While the women in the village speaks Dzongkha, Tsangla and Kuertoep.
Sou budista e o que posso dizer é que, com a prática e o passar dos anos, a gente vai tendo um amor e compaixão pelos animais cada vez maior! E eles por nós.❤🙏

Every native person who lives in Bhutan has adore their lives. It‘s a truly beautiful heart they have resonated with a scenic landscape. Hope to visit there near my future and touch with their genuineness.
If only the world seen the Earth as Bhutan sees it's small but important country... the world would be magnificent and beautiful! 41:35... such a big heart! His message should be heard by many and taken to heart
Thank you for sharing this. As a resident here in Bhutan I am about to begin my wonder holiday through early March. I would love to visit/provide assistance during this time if possible. ❤
Some people may say democracy and capitalism is the solution for everything, but few of us still prefer to live the way they do. Less greed or tension surrounded by loved ones who really cry and smile with you ❤
Buthan has democracy, they choose the parliament. The former king decided this because he said that it's not a good idea to leave a country in the hands of one person.
We were just there in October. Beautiful country, beautiful people. Can’t wait to come back 🙏 Special thanks to the Customs and Immigration at Paro Airport who made the paperwork process super fast and easy. Love the hospitality 🙏🙏🙏
@ there’s nothing wrong with saying anything like that. Were they not educated? Even in first world country, dental professionals do educate people. There’s nothing to be ashamed of that. Your definition of education is too subjective.
I've learned a lot about Bhutan. I'm from the Philippines and the people in Bhutan have the same character as that of the Filipinos though in our country most are Catholics. I am also fascinated that technology reaches the mountains of Bhutan. Thank you for the video, DW! 🎉
I think Bhutanese also don’t always know how fortunate they are Since the economy started opening up, its GDP per capita has grown to USD3,100 plus per annum - at least pre Covid. This compares extremely favourably to the GDP per capita in Bangladesh (~ USD2000) or India ( ~usd 2700) or Pakistan (~usd1500). This is in part due to the relatively low corruption in Bhutan. And the current leaders who seem to care about their people. Education and healthcare are free. English is the medium of instruction allowing Bhutanese to instantly access the global economy. There are of course great challenges for Bhutan. I’m hopeful that the Gelephu Mindfulness City will do well and allow Bhutan to drawn their young people who have migrated to Australia and elsewhere back. For a small nation and unique culture, this is existential.
This video is informative. You all should do one on brunei, Galapagos islands, Socotra, Madagascar, Seychelles, Costa Rica These are some biodiverse regions
They complain of no electricity, but now that they have it, instead of sitting together at night as a family bonding, they will eventually all disconnect being more interested in their phones than they are each other. Ask me how i know, its how we all live now in america. I would trade my life here for the lives of these people any day.
You have to take the rough with the smooth - in an isolated village there are no sewers and infrastructure, piped clean water, supermarkets, immediate access to medical support if needed, well paid jobs, good roads etc
Thanks for the information. What a beautiful landscape, they are grateful for having a bull and pray for it, they see beauty in nature. In Peru there is the mountain region where the inhabitants identify them as provincial and provincial, some of them are hypocrites with nature and some of them are hypocrites with nature. To take care of your health.
We are all human at the end who's able to cry for help. We are better to show ourselves sincerely without the mask that could be happiness, angry, fear, satisfaction whatever the scholars calls. If always happy? It's problematic that you are beyond the present under One Lord, happy Thanksgiving to all of you, we are human after all.
I think this young dentist deserves his own documentary! Hats off to him!
Bhutan chased away so many nepali Hindus 😂
@ahmednadir1766 what does that have to do with the comment you're replying to?
He changed my life. I’m in New York because of his support and undying faith in me

Loves from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 to Bhutanese people they are peacekeeping example for whole world.
I love how they respect the nature.
Some people may say democracy and capitalism is the solution for everything, but few of us still prefer to live the way they do.
Less greed or tension surrounded by loved ones who really cry and smile with you ❤
Buthan has democracy, they choose the parliament. The former king decided this because he said that it's not a good idea to leave a country in the hands of one person.
@@catalina5382 didn't the former king expel hundreds of thousands of people who were asking for democracy in the 1990s?
I love Bhutan from Bangladesh. Bhutan first recognized Bangladesh during our liberation war in 1971.🇧🇩
We were just there in October. Beautiful country, beautiful people. Can’t wait to come back 🙏
Special thanks to the Customs and Immigration at Paro Airport who made the paperwork process super fast and easy. Love the hospitality 🙏🙏🙏
What a lovely and real documentary. Great job DW .❤
Thank you for a beautiful documentary on my country. Proud of my countrymen ❤
I enjoyed till the end. Thanks for showing the situations of my country DW Documentary.

They never give foreigners citizenship afaik.
Thanks for sharing such beautiful documentary ❤️
Kudos to the dentist medical team for educating the tribe.
What is a tribe?
That’s Discrimination
@@Choeda10 lol. What do you mean?
@@popinternational5909 because your word doesn’t resemble those who got treated !
@ there’s nothing wrong with saying anything like that. Were they not educated? Even in first world country, dental professionals do educate people. There’s nothing to be ashamed of that. Your definition of education is too subjective.
Bhutan is fascinating.
I've learned a lot about Bhutan. I'm from the Philippines and the people in Bhutan have the same character as that of the Filipinos though in our country most are Catholics. I am also fascinated that technology reaches the mountains of Bhutan. Thank you for the video, DW! 🎉

Danke schoen, DW
Warm greetings from Jakarta, Indonesia

Thank you for watching and greetings to you too!
We have no idea how fortunate we are while they have no idea how peaceful they are.
I think Bhutanese also don’t always know how fortunate they are

Beautiful documentary 😢
most epic country in my bucket list for 2025....
❤❤❤❤
Bhutan do not welcome tourists, they fear their natural harmony will get ruined. So facilities for tourists are scarce
Make a documentary on Bhutan’s infamous Ethnic Cleansing
Namaste, can you provide any contact info for Sonam and the Monastery that rescues animals there? I would like to help. 🙏
You can look up Jangsa animal trust
This video is informative. You all should do one on brunei, Galapagos islands, Socotra, Madagascar, Seychelles, Costa Rica These are some biodiverse regions
🙏 Thankyou for best documentary.....all the best....
Lots of love to bhutan from Bangladesh. Bhutan the first country to recognize us in 1972 🇧🇩❤🇧🇹
Then make ur country like Bhutan not like Pakistan
@@ujjwalkumar876good statement😂💯
@ujjwalkumar876 why are i crying p@jeet.
As someone who lives in Bhutan , i would say Bangladesh is becoming dangerous for minorities
They complain of no electricity, but now that they have it, instead of sitting together at night as a family bonding, they will eventually all disconnect being more interested in their phones than they are each other. Ask me how i know, its how we all live now in america. I would trade my life here for the lives of these people any day.
True that
You have to take the rough with the smooth - in an isolated village there are no sewers and infrastructure, piped clean water, supermarkets, immediate access to medical support if needed, well paid jobs, good roads etc
Om Mani Padme Hum 🙏 Not only do I see so many selfless individuals doing so much for others but I see Chenrezig in all of them 🙏 🙇♂️
The buthanese animal rescue monks could be a great series, just saying
Agreed!
There is a movie about that. Something similar to that. It’s called “Norbu the yak” I’m not sure about the title sorry
One of wishlist Country to visit this year😇😇🙏
Sonam Norzin is a the personification of COMPASSION, glad to know Sonam personally 🐱
Wow! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Real animal activists are living in Bhutan. Happy to see this.
Beautiful documentary!
Bhutanese have a great respect to even the animals not only the wildlife but also the domestics.
Best Neighbour of India
India is threatened to his neighbouring countries.
Bhutan have the right strategy for tourism. Keep them tourists seperate from locals.
So nice and great mountain's country, thank you,
Love from Bhutan ❤❤❤
They are speaking in Nepali language. Nice to see them ❤
We have more than 30% Nepali speaking Bhutanese and majority of Bhutanese can speak too
The land is so beautiful because the people take care of it.
The respect for animal welfare is wonderful. ❤ Would you do a documentary about TENGRISM that respects nature equally as well?
Sonam ❤❤🙏🙏 Thank you for the animals ❤️
Also the Animal Rescue organization and the grandma who saves the Yaks and the monks and also the dentist- how wonderful you all are! ❤
the dentist ❤
Beautiful video 🙏
Hats off man
Awesome explanation and elaboration
Thank you for your comment!
I am happy to see Nepali community
And grate kirat culture in Bhutan
Great video all the way from Houston Texas 🐲📿☸️🕉☯️☮️✝️✡️❤️🌍
Land of Happiness aint that happy afterall without those modern day education and electricity
Land of happiness doesn't mean it's a paradise.
As long as you are alive, you will always have problems and issues, no matter where you live.
This place is heaven ♥️
Love u dw
Now they are not hidden anymore...😢
How many dentists work in rural or small towns in America? No money none.
Bhutan owns over 13,000 bitcoin and will catapult itself to a first world country.
ya right. they will squander it like everyone else
on of my lovers country. ,,with the grade future. and great plan,love you all ,,,from sri lanka. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
@dw thanks
i love all them and young dentist
I want to see Boutan and Nepal once in my future

How can we can help the dentist? I want to donated toothpaste and toothbrushes
Thank u for the good though 🙏
Wow ❤
Come on dentist!! 👏🏾
