Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC) is a visionary urban project that combines economic development with mindfulness, sustainable practices, and holistic lifestyles.
Features of GMC:
The city will be centered around inhabitable bridges and designed as a low-rise settlement with its own university and healthcare facilities offering both modern and traditional medicine. It will feature eleven ribbon-like neighborhoods connected by 35 rivers and streams, arranged in mandala-inspired patterns around public spaces. GMC will also include an international airport, vibrant markets, and spiritual centers. To safeguard against flooding, terraced paddy fields will be developed along riverbanks, cascading from the hills to the valley. The city will function under its own government with law-making powers and an independent judiciary, while also preserving nature through a national park and a wildlife sanctuary.
