Once, white pigeons scattered all over the sky and a big blue clear sky was above the head, peach trees were full of soothing pretty flowers, and the happy smile was all where in a happy land, history calls it “The Great Spiritual Land, Bhutan” and a blissful palace was made by those happy citizens, called “Punakha Dzong (the palace of great happiness or bliss)”. As a child, who holds his father’s hand from one side and mother’s hand from another side, like an eternal holy child of Bhutan, “Punakha Dzong” is situated at the confluence of the Pho Chhu (father) and Mo Chhu (mother) rivers in the “Punakha–Wangdue” valley.

Untouched mountains, curved hills, fascinated valleys, God blessing rivers, smiley rural lives and devoted Buddhism, these are what resemble “Bhutan, The Land Of Thunder Dragon”.

I still remember the first weekend when I visited “Kazirana” for first time.

In end of a very rainy month, a very dark cloudy day came in the peaceful land of “Tibet”. Tibetans were scattered here and there for finding a dry shelter. One day a gigantic thunder lightened the whole sky, and the great hero of Tibet “Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal” atlast found a new land, a new horizon to see the green valleys of peace and spirituality. And that was “The Land Of Thunder Dragon, Bhutan”. When he first entered in that new region he went through a village, which was “Laya”, in the “Gasa” District, where he met an indigenous people, called “Layap Tibal”, so called the highlander of “Bhutan”. Bhutanese people call them “Bjop”.
