The Paro Weekend Market comes alive Friday through Sunday by the river in Paro Valley. This isn't just for tourists – it's where real Bhutanese life happens.
Farmers come from nearby hills at sunrise with bright red chilies and odd veggies you've never seen before. The air smells of strong cheese, incense, and smoke.
What's so great about the Paro Weekend Market in Bhutan? It might be watching old women argue over grain prices just like they've done for years. Or finding a hand-made mask while the maker tells you stories over hot tea.
Unlike the everyday markets in Thimphu, this weekend gathering feels like a family get-together – people sharing news while buying what they need. Explore it yourself with our Bhutan tour packages - come hungry, leave amazed, and remember to haggle – everyone does it!
