Bhutan, the land of the peaceful thunder dragon is known to the world by several names such as the ‘the Last Shangri-La’ or ‘the Last Place on the Roof of the World.’ Though the original name from the time of Marco Polo was ‘Bootan,’ the natives prefer to call their country ‘Druk Yul,’ or the Land of the Peaceful Thunder Dragon. Nestled in the lap of the Himalayas, Bhutan offers spectacular mountain views, immense scenic beauty and a unique culture and lifestyle.

Trongsa


A four-hour drive from Wangduephodrang is Trongsa in the middle of Bhutan. Trongsa was the center of power as both the first and second kings ruled the country from here. It is also the ancestral home of the royal family. In addition to the spectacular scenery, the most striking feature of Trongsa is the most impressive dzong in Bhutan, Trongsa Dzong. The dzong is a multileveled building that contains numerous corridors and temples. Due to its expanse, the dzong can be seen from a great distance. The watchtower crowns the dzong, and houses two interesting chapels.

Trongsa is also famous for its handmade bamboo baskets, wooden bowls, and bamboo hats, which are worn by farmers.
