Festivals are part of the life-blood of the Bhutanese. While Bhutanese national dress is anyhow elegant and colourful, the ritual clothing for festivals shows an astonishing array of colours. We highly recommend including a festival in to your itinerary. Rural Heritage Bhutan can help you customise your trip to include any of the following festivals noting the following points.

* These festivals are in the middle of the country. Due to the distance to be covered on Bhutan’s small roads, it is advised to include these festivals in a trip of approximately two-weeks duration.

These festivals are in the far east of the country. You may consider exiting Bhutan to the east of the country and flying from Guwahati in Assam.

These festivals are very popular. You need to book early to ensure accommodation and flights.
