Bhutan, das kleine Königreich im Himalaya ist noch nicht lange für Touristen offen und steht daher ganz oben auf der Wunschliste von Elli und ihrem Sohn Lausi. Verbunden mit einem kurzen Abstecher in die bekanntesten Teeregionen Nordindiens soll es eine lehrreiche Studienreise für das schwäbische Mutter-Sohn Gespann werden. Leider scheint aber die gebirgige Höhe zu anstrengend für einige der älteren Mitreisenden und nicht nur einer von Ihnen stirbt an vermeintlichen Höhenbeschwerden. Als dann auch noch der Reiseleiter tödlich verunglückt, wird Elli schnell klar, dass hier nicht alleine kranke Herzen die Todesursache sein können. Mit Hilfe ihres langjährigen Freundes Kommissar Köberle wird der Mörder schließlich überführt.

A journey can be many things. My journeys introduced me to Drukpa Kunley the irreverent patron saint of Bhutan. He understood that the easiest path to enlightenment was through surprise and humor. Through the constant use of his "magic thunderbolt," Kunley would shock people away from life's distractions. Many Bhutanese attribute the importance of the phallus to the "madcap lama" and his exploits through the western half of the Himalayan kingdom during the 15th and 16th centuries. The demons and ogres of the day didn't stand a chance against the magic thunderbolt of the Divine Madman; nor did his female disciples! To this day, devotees of Kunley adorn their buildings and houses with phallic paintings. Even children and domestic animals use the phallic tailsmans to enjoy protection from hostile spirits. This artistic tradition is ubiquitous throughout Bhutan, land of Gross National Happiness. It's about time Western culture is exposed to this art so that at least momentarily one's attachments are forgotten and the mind is set free!!

Bhutan is an ideal destination for trekkers wishing to experience the magic of the Himalaya without the commercialism.

Included are the classic Lunana 'Snowman' Trek, the Jhomolhari and Dagala Treks, and the Druk Path, as well as many other treks - both well-established trails and other routes of a more exploratory nature, venturing into remote and seldom-visited areas of the country. You will find thorough coverage of all the practicalities, with notes on trekking seasons, outfitters, transport, accommodation and food, ethics and etiquette, equipment and medical considerations (including safety at altitude). The guide also offers a fascinating insight into Bhutanese mountain life, from local superstitions and beliefs to plants, wildlife and yak husbandry. Route description is presented alongside sketch mapping and information on local points of interest. Trekking here is a truly unique experience, promising memories that will last a lifetime.

The legendary weaving tradition of Bhutan, spanning several centuries with meticulously-constructed traditional and classic design layouts, continue to be woven to this day. This photographic volume provides a visual tribute and catalogue of the kira. It is the national and traditional dress of Bhutanese womenfolk worn with pride, in daily life and on special occasions. This key catalogue and special focus on kiras begins the exploration with the kishung or poncho, said to be the forerunner of the presentday kira. The photographs in this volume document the kira’s evolution as a garment. Depending on the quality and intricacy of patterns, the weaver may be required to spend up to two years of daylight hours to create one kira. The kira is akin to a blank canvas upon which weavers display, thread by thread, their creative inspiration. The excellence, evidence of painstaking crafting, and highly-formed creative abilities of the Bhutanese women weavers present to us a visual range of wearable art that is both beautiful and functional. Expression of design skills provides a near-kaleidoscopic montage of elegance where Bhutanese fashion and art merge as one. In this day and age, the user, beholder, collector, and heirloom historian are indeed fortunate to fully enjoy and appreciate this living tradition and heritage of art and craft.

In a remote kingdom hidden in the Himalayas, there is a trail said to be the toughest trek in the world—twenty-four days, 216 miles, eleven mountain passes, and enough ghost stories to scare an exorcist. In 2007 Kevin Grange decided to acquaint himself with the country of Bhutan by taking on this infamous trail, the Snowman Trek. He was thirty-three, at a turning point in life, and figured the best way to go at a crossroad was up. Against a backdrop of Buddhist monasteries and soaring mountains, Grange ventured beyond the mapped world to visit time-lost villages and sacred valleys. In the process, recounted here with a blend of laugh-out-loud humor, heartfelt insight, and acute observation, he tested the limits of physical endurance, met a fascinating assortment of characters, and discovered truths about faith, hope, and the shrouded secret of blossom rain. Beneath Blossom Rain, Grange's account of his journey, packs an adventure story, a romantic twist, and a celebration of group travel into a single entertaining book. The result is the ultimate journey for any traveler, armchair or otherwise. Along with high adventure, it delivers an engaging look at Bhutan—a country that governs by a policy of Gross National Happiness and that many regard as the last Shangri-La.
