Punakha Tshechu

Punakha Dzong Punakha

Immerse yourself in Bhutan’s ancient traditions during the Punakha Tshechu festival! Held during March, this colorful celebration features mesmerizing masked dances performed by monks. Between dances, lively clowns (atsaras) entertain the crowd with jokes and antics. Don’t miss the awe-inspiring unfurling of the Thongdrol—a giant silk painting—on the festival’s final day. It’s a joyous blend of spirituality, art, and community.
