Amankora Bhutan: 5 Valleys, 5 Lodges, One Amazing Life-Enriching Journey Through the Himalayas

Aman Hotels & Resorts

Amankora isn’t just a place—it’s a pilgrimage. Designed for seekers of serenity and soul, this transformative journey stretches across five valleys of Bhutan—Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Gangtey, and Bumthang—each home to an Amankora lodge. Together, they form a ribbon of luxury, culture, and reflection through one of the world’s last Himalayan kingdoms. As part of the world-renowned Aman Hotels & Resorts, Amankora offers curated experiences across Bhutan’s spiritual core. From spa rituals to sacred hikes and local immersion, each moment feels deeply personal, beautifully Bhutanese, and timelessly Aman.

A multi-valley sanctuary designed for discovery

This collection of five lodges invites travelers to journey through Bhutan’s central and western valleys without sacrificing comfort or coherence. Whether you stay for three nights or fourteen, Amankora weaves your journey into a seamless narrative—where every arrival feels like a homecoming and every valley tells a new story.

Each lodge reflects its surrounding terrain: pine forests in Paro, peaceful monasteries in Gangtey, fertile rice terraces in Punakha, historic capitals in Thimphu, and spiritual heartlands in Bumthang. Architecture mirrors dzong-inspired silhouettes, interiors are minimal yet warm, and every suite is designed with king-size beds, wood-burning stoves, and quiet corners to contemplate the view.

A deeper way to experience Bhutan’s soul

Rather than simply visiting temples or ticking off views, Amankora’s curated journeys guide guests through layers of Bhutanese heritage. Expert local hosts introduce you to the rhythms of rural life, from textile weaving and butter-lamp offerings to sacred dances at Gangtey Goemba.

Signature experiences include:

  • Hiking to Tiger’s Nest after a sunrise breakfast
  • Lighting 108 butter lamps at Jambay Lhakhang
  • Joining monks for morning meditation
  • Exploring farmers’ markets and local art studios
  • Sharing stories by the fire with guides who feel like family

Whether it’s a 3-night Tiger’s Odyssey or a 14-night cross-valley immersion, each journey is crafted to leave both memory and meaning.

Mindful moments of restoration

Across all five lodges, wellness is more than a menu—it’s a mindset. The spas blend traditional Bhutanese techniques with Aman’s signature grounding treatments. You might find yourself in a steam room after a mountain hike, on a massage table as bells from a nearby monastery echo, or in a yoga class facing emerald hills.

The calmness is built into the landscape, and Amankora simply helps you return to it.

Taste the altitude through Bhutanese culinary heritage

At Amankora, dining is both nourishment and narrative. Menus feature ingredients harvested from local valleys—cheese from Bumthang, red rice from Paro, vegetables from Punakha—and are paired with recipes passed down through generations.

In the communal dining rooms or on starlit terraces, enjoy meals that embrace Bhutanese, Indian, and Western influences. Special touches like hot-stone riverbank barbecues, firepit feasts, and traditional cooking lessons elevate every bite into an experience.

Why your spiritual journey deserves Amankora

Amankora offers more than five lodges—it offers five invitations to reconnect. To nature, to culture, to ritual, and most importantly, to yourself. In a land where Gross National Happiness reigns, each night in an Amankora suite, each conversation with a local guide, and each step on a highland trail feels like a return to balance.

If you’re ready to escape noise and step into stillness, a journey through Amankora’s Bhutan is not only worth taking—it’s worth treasuring.
