Traditional medicine, or Sowa Rigpa, is still practised alongside modern care in Bhutan, drawing on hundreds of Himalayan plants.

Walk with a practitioner through a medicinal garden or dispensary, learning how herbs, minerals and ritual combine to heal.

Discover remedies gathered from meadows above four thousand metres — a pharmacy that grows on the roof of the world.
