Festivals of Bhutan – Trongsa

Hidden in a corner of the Himalaya, the secretive kingdom of Bhutan is an unforgettable destination with ancient traditions, spectacular mountain scenery and vibrant festivals. At these, hundreds gather to see monks in brightly coloured robes perform ritual dances. For several days there are masked dances and prayer meetings, and a general carnival atmosphere prevails. This extra-special departure takes in the Trongsa Festival, the oldest festival in Bhutan, which pays tribute to Guru Rinpoche through sacred performances and dances.This itinerary is valid for Trongsa Festival only. For alternative festival departures in Bhutan, please have a look at Paro Festival, Thimphu Festival or the Black Crane Festival
