As a nation practicing Vajrayana Buddhism, meditation and retreats are a common characteristic especially among the Buddhist practitioners and the monks. One can come across small retreat centers and hermitages all over the country; next to temples, monasteries and monastic schools.
These retreat and meditation centers provide Bhutanese with the much needed respite from the hum-drums of normal life style and it is a common trait among Buddhists to disappear into the mountains for days, weeks, months and years. The retreats help people and the practitioners to draw upon their inner self and visualize upon the purpose of life.
