Join RGS-Singapore and real-life photographer Ju Shen Lee on another exciting virtual expedition to the Eastern Himalayas in our upcoming webinar, “Bhutan - The Rarely Seen”! The Zoom event will be held on 21 April at 7.30pm Singapore Time (GMT+8). The Kingdom of Bhutan is nestled between the high alpine Tibetan Plateau and the tropical floodplains of the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers. The landlocked country measures approximately 280km from east to west, and approximately 150km from north to south. Rivers flowing from the northern highlands to the southern lowlands have carved Bhutan’s renowned stunning geography.
Ju Shen's 3-week long photo-expedition traversed Bhutan from Paro, in western Bhutan, to Merak, in eastern Bhutan, going far beyond the tourist hotspots of Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, and Bumthang. Besides the readily seen beautiful scenery and unique architecture, Ju Shen’s ‘Real.Life.Photos’ capture the rarely seen daily lives of the Bhutanese people. The heart and soul of Bhutan are the nation's strong, stoic, and spiritual people, who face the future with one foot planted firmly in their ageless history, and the other foot planted firmly in their timeless culture. Ju Shen’s talk will give you a rare insight into daily lives of the self-reliant and self-sustaining Bhutanese people.
