Bhutan’s new gateway
Just weeks ago, Bhutan announced the opening of the Samdrup Jongkhar gateway on its border with India as a new international tourism gateway.
The gateway will give travellers easier access to the valleys of the east – Trashigang, Trashi Yangtse, Mongar, Lhuentse, and Pema Gatshe – known for their pristine natural landscapes and vibrant cultural heritage.

Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Employment, Director of the Department of Tourism, Damcho Rinzin says, “We believe this new gateway will make travel to the east more accessible and provide visitors with a truly memorable experience.
“Bhutan is a year-round destination, with each season offering unique opportunities and experience, and with the opening of another entry and exit point it will provide our guests more options to explore other parts throughout the year.”
