Thimphu

A capital focused on achiving happiness.

The capital of the tiny Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan, Thimphu is a charming, but sleepy, town. It's set in a broad valley at the foot of the towering Thimphu Dzong, a fortress that serves as the home of the royal family and the seat of government. The town is full of character, with brightly painted houses, a lively bazaar, and plenty of monasteries and temples. There's not a lot to do in Thimphu, but that's part of its appeal - it's a great place to relax and soak up the peaceful atmosphere.
