Bhutan | Amankora journey



This is the national emblem of Bhutan - the destination of my next trip. Be watching here over the next few weeks to read about and see some of the scenery and culture of Bhutan.

After three days in Bangkok, we fly to Paro to begin our nine-day Amankora Journey.
   

The map above shows the locations of the five lodges in Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Gangtey, and Bumthang (from west to east). We will be spending one night in Thimphu and two each in the other lodges.

Be watching for much more news from our trip. We will spend our first three nights at the FS Bangkok (with site inspections of the St. Regis and The Siam) before flying to Paro. On our return to Bangkok, we will spend one night at Four Seasons Tented Camp (I'm especially looking forward to reporting back about this fabled resort). One final night at the newly renovated Peninsula Hong Kong (and sampling their Rolls Royce transfers) before heading back to San Francisco.

Lots of photos and site inspections to follow… keep watching this blog!
