Bhutan is perhaps one of the most photogenic places in the world. The landscape, nature, architecture and the people make it a photographer’s paradise. People are generally happy to pose for pictures, but do ask before you do so if you are focusing on one person. Photography is not permitted inside Dzongs, monasteries and temples as they are considered living institutions.

You could use your video camera for recording your events during the tours (except in those restricted places mentioned) but there is a set of rules for the commercial filming. It is advisable to bring your own photographic equipment and needs. Films and camera batteries are available generally only in major towns. Slide film is generally not available so bring plenty of slide rolls if you’re shooting slides.

In Bhutan, the variety of images that are available almost make one believe that this small, Asian kingdom was designed as a training ground for photographers.
In addition, the consistency of Bhutanese architecture and design, varied only by the imagination of the designers, will keep all avid photographers clutching their cameras in anticipation of that one memorable shot. So, come with Himalayan Dreams to these photographic islands in the heart of the Himalayas! Experience the difference and take home photographs gathered on the photo tour of a lifetime ! Let Himalayan Dreams create a photographic tour designed to meet your picture taking needs.
