Bhutan is probably the slowest but the happiest country in the world.

Bhutan lies between Tibet and India, in the Himalayan Mtn range. It's a small kingdom where the land is 1/5 of Korea, with a 710K population.
Although they opened up their borders in 1974, they've been putting restrictions on the number of travelers to keep their tradition and nature.

The way to Bhutan gets difficult from the start. Rather than reaching there from the west side of the country with the int'l airport, it's faster to take the walking route. Once you cross the India-Bhutan borders, the uphill through the Himalayan mountain range goes endlessly.

Walking 5 hours in an ever-changing climate, the mysterious town located 11,500 ft above sea level, Merak reveals itself.
It's the home of Brokpa who are seminomads, and the place was kept from traveling by the Bhutan gov't. The gov't allowed traveling just 3 years ago, so the land still remains mysterious. The red clothes and unique hats are the main features of the people in Merak! The team was well welcomed with a traditional mask dance and heard stories of the tour guide, Linchen and his family.
