Explore Samtse: Bhutan's Hidden Gem in the Southwest Foothills

We happened upon Samtse last year. Believe us, it's nowhere in those shiny Bhutan travel guides, and that's the very reason you must visit.

Located in the southwest corner of Bhutan, Samtse is nothing like the Bhutan you've scrolled through on Instagram. While tourists are shivering up north, residents here get to bask in warm temperatures all year round. The hills aren't merely green - they're a burst of greenery that leaves you questioning whether someone turned up the color saturation.

Let's be real about Samtse Bhutan - it's rough, unvarnished, and utterly real. No one's staging perfect photos for visitors here. Kids play in dusty village squares, monks chat over tea instead of posing mysteriously, and markets sell actual everyday stuff, not overpriced souvenirs.

When checking places to visit in Bhutan, most travelers skip this region entirely. Their loss! Our Bhutan tour packages now include this hidden spot where you'll meet real Bhutanese people living real lives - not just those assigned to entertain tourists.

First Impressions of Samtse

As soon as you enter Samtse, the scenery changes. The roads wind through thick green forests, small rivers flow by the side, and little houses dot the hills. The landscape is softer than the northern parts of Bhutan. It’s mostly warm, and the land is extremely fertile, so you will see a lot of farms growing rice, ginger, cardamom, and maize.

Most people here are farmers and live a very simple life. One thing that I noticed was how nice the people were. From a school-going kid to a shopkeeper to an old farmer, all welcomed me with a warm smile. It was nice to be in a place where no one is in a hurry.
