Time your trip to Bhutan's biggest festival, with Punakha and the crane valley of Phobjikha built around it.
The Paro Tshechu is one of Bhutan's most colorful annual festivals — masked dances performed by monks, culminating in the unveiling of a giant sacred thangka before dawn. This route builds a full week of central Bhutan sightseeing around festival dates.
