A week built around Thimphu's autumn Tshechu, one of the largest and most crowded festivals in the country.
Thimphu's Tshechu draws visitors from across Bhutan for three days of masked dances at Tashichho Dzong, ending with the dawn unveiling of a giant appliquéd thangka. This route pairs the festival with the rest of the western circuit.
