The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have arrived in the tiny mountainous nation of Bhutan, which borders India and China.

The royal couple landed at Paro International Airport, one of the world's most challenging airports to touch down at.

They were met by the sister of the King of Bhutan Chhimi Yangzom and her husband, who gave William and Kate a ceremonial scarf called a khadhar, given as a symbol of friendship.
