Known as the cultural and spiritual hub of Bhutan, Bumthang is a region that captivates the hearts of visitors with its serene landscapes, ancient monasteries, and vibrant festivals.
Consider including Bumthang on your Bhutan tour packages to feel an unmatched connection to Bhutanese traditions.
Bumthang isn’t just one valley, it’s a collection of four magical valleys of Bhutan – Ura, Chumey, Tang, and Choekhor – that come together to form a wonderland.
Ura, the “hidden valley,” is where you’ll find the Ura Valley cheese factory, churning out some of the most delicious cheese you’ll ever sink your teeth into.
Chumey boasts the impressive Jakar Dzong, a fortress monastery that’s like something straight out of a fairytale.
Tang Valley is where history buffs rejoice – ancient temples and hidden caves whisper stories of the past. It is also known for its beautiful, remote villages and the sacred Burning Lake (Mebar Tsho), where treasures hidden by the Buddhist saint Pema Lingpa are said to be found. And Choekhor, well, Choekhor is where Bumthang gets its name, which translates to “beautiful field.” Believe it or not, the name might have something to do with pretty young ladies, but that’s a story for another time!
