Magic of the Orient

The holidays in our Orient section were previously operated by Magic of the Orient, which has now joined with its sister company Trips Worldwide.

THIMPHU

Established as the capital in 1961, Thimpu is the world’s only capital without a set of traffic lights. A set was installed, but the residents complained it was too impersonal, so it was replaced by a white gloved traffic policeman!    

This is a friendly and relaxed town with a youthful exuberance. There is plenty to keep you entertained and places of interest include the Textile Museum, the Folk HeritageMuseum and the weekend market.

The places, accommodation and tours shown on this page represent only a small selection of Trips Tailormade bespoke holidays. For more information about travelling with us, and the locations we offer, please contact us or let us call you!.
