Paro Tshechu || Bhutan's Colorful Cultural Festival

Welcome to the Dragon Kingdom of Bhutan! Thanks to Flying Fox Bhutan (www.flyingfoxbhutan.com) for giving me a 3 day tour around this beautiful kingdom.
Hidden in the Himalayas, Bhutan is full of awe inspiring beauty. But when I planned my trip, I wanted to make sure I was there during one of their colorful festivals. These Tsechus draw people from all over the district to observe spiritual rituals and cleanse themselves from their sins. Drums and horns blare out through the mountainside as brightly costumed dancers twirl through the courtyard. Everyone comes in their best dress with the utmost reverence on this sacred day both for their king and their faith.

[@sachinsg6560]

Which lens did you use

[@ApoorvaManwatkar]

What time of year you went there? And when this festival is celebrated?

[@thetravelingzam]

Hey! This was April of last year. They have a few tsechus throughout the year however. Flying Fox Bhutan helped me arrange my tour around the festivals!

[@NamaskarShanti]

Is the music played as background …native to Bhutan?

[@thetravelingzam]

I don’t believe so. I have very limited royalty free music services

[@bokhuchoden4400]

Ur video is so vibrant, colourful and refreshing but the back ground music does not suit the video, go for Bhutanese folk music it would go so well wit the video

[@samozeal9466]

Seems like you must have stuck out like a sore thumb!

[@thetravelingzam]

Yeah definitely!! Didn't have my traditional Bhutanese outfit
