A compact introduction to Bhutan for travelers short on time — Thimphu, Punakha, and Tiger's Nest in five days.
If you can only spare a long weekend plus a couple of days, this is the tightest version of the western circuit that still fits in the country's best-known sights, without feeling rushed.
