Growing up in Bhutan, the need and vibrancy that our capital city, Thimphu, commanded always impressed me.

Seeking the Ultimate Getaway: The Postcard Dewa Among the resorts in Thimphu, few strike as an oasis, and of those, perhaps the most noteworthy is The Postcard Dewa. Located on the outskirts of the city, it is a place to stay and a destination in itself. Set amidst a serene forest, the Postcard Dewa offers guests an escape yet keeps them near enough to the cultural riches of Thimphu.

Large in size, the spaces range from 995 to 2,100 square feet, each boasting traditional Bhutanese elements that connect guests to the culture.
