Bhutan is a landlocked country in the Himalayan Eastern edge. The architecture in Paro is detailed with artwork and religious inscription. The streets are spotless with neatly manicured trees and the locals all wear the same type of outfit, blackish - red robes.It is very easy to see their sense of pride in their nation and their discipline.Everyone follows the national dress code and is conscious about the environment.

The King and Prime Minister have a distinct vision of the country. They want Bhutan to be the cleanest, in terms of the environment, people's thoughts and intellectual aspirations.Education is free and the government also pays for any specialised course or courses an individual may choose to enroll in.

There is a law that states that at all times 90% of Bhutan has to be a forested area while 10% is urbanised. No animals are slaughtered in Bhutan and even though they are mostly non - vegetarian, all meat products are imported from other countries.

Tourists are not allowed to roam freely in the country especially in the interior and must at all times be accompanied by a guide, though this rule may seem stringent it does not apply to the local inhabitants and this is what sets it apart.What is most surprising is that the people are naturally inclined to follow these rules and make a collective effort towards protecting their environment.

Perhaps this is why it is said that Bhutan has the highest Grossing National Happiness.
