Paro Tshechu is a popular festival in Bhutan. Featuring dances performed by trained monks and laymen in amazing masks and costumes. Tshechus are one of the best ways to experience the ancient living culture of Bhutan. A Tshechu is a Buddhist festival in honour of Guru Rimpoche, the saint who brought Buddhism to Bhutan. A highlight of the Paro Tsechu is the unfurling of the “thongdroel” – a silk Thangka so large it covers the face of an entire building and is considered a sacred blessing. ‘Thongdroel’ is a religious picture scroll, and is only exhibited for a few hours at daybreak on the final day of the festival enabling the people to obtain its blessing. This holy scroll “confers liberation by the mere sight of it” (the meaning of the word ‘thongdroel’ in Bhutanese). This tour also takes advantage of the beautiful spring time growth with stunning hikes through the countryside to a Rhododendron forest in Phobjikha, the sacred sites of Paro, Thimphu and Punakha.
