Punakha is one of the most beautiful and historic valleys in Bhutan. It is surrounded by green hills, rice fields, and two important rivers—Pho Chhu and Mo Chhu. But Punakha is not only known for its natural beauty; it is also famous for hosting some of Bhutan’s most important religious festivals. These festivals are full of life, with colorful masks, traditional dances, music, and spiritual rituals. Locals dress in their finest clothes, monks perform sacred dances, and everyone gathers at the majestic Punakha Dzong to celebrate. These festivals are not only a time of prayer and blessing but also a time to share happiness with friends, family, and visitors. Whether you're watching the brave warrior reenactments of Punakha Drubchen or the sacred dances of the Punakha Tshechu, these events let you feel the true heart of Bhutanese culture. People from across the country—and the world—come to take part in these unforgettable celebrations.
