The Paro Tshechu Festival represents a cultural legacy that has stood the test of time and has its origins intertwined throughout centuries of Bhutanese history and is one of the most popular festivals of Bhutan.

Reportedly instituted in the 17th century by Gyalse Tenzin Rabgay, Bhutan’s temporal monarch during that era, the festival was created to honor the birth anniversary of Guru Rinpoche, popularly referred to as Padmasambhava.

In Bhutanese Buddhism, Guru Rinpoche is highly esteemed for having brought Buddhism to the country and chased out evil spirits, resulting in peace and prosperity.
