Bhutan to the Bay of Bengal (S01E06)
S01E06
The journey begins in Bhutan, a serene mountainous nation that prioritizes Gross National Happiness over economic gain. Here, he interacts with poets and partakes in a vibrant religious festival featuring archery and an impressive five-story tapestry. After his time in Bhutan, he travels to Bangladesh, a low-lying land formed from Himalayan silt. He engages with local entrepreneurs and explores the bustling capital, Dacca. Finally, he embarks on a steamer down the delta to Mongla, culminating his six-month adventure at the picturesque Bay of Bengal.
