Chojam Rabney – 29 Nov to 03 Dec, 2020

Chojam Lhakhang | Bumthang

  • The name ‘Chojam’ was originally derived when Yidam Khorlo Dompo (presently one of the most important relics of the Lhakhang) was brought down to the village. The local people noticed that the statue’s expression looked sad and got its name as Chojam Lhakhang. Chojam Rabney is celebrated for 5 days which is financially supported by the villagers of Tang which includes four Chiwogs (Chitsum, Nimlung, Gawjud and Sakarmed). The Tshogpa also seeks funds from any visitors in Tang for the Lhakhang.
  • The Chams/ dances includes the Yakcham, Lhamgyem (performed in 2 types), Tempa Phuensum (which is said to have originated from Tibet) and many other Cham/dance varieties performed in other Dzongkhags, all of which are performed by the monks, the local villagers and students.

Tour of the Dragon – 7 September, 2019

From Bumthang to Thimphu

  • Tour of the Dragon is not a road bike race or a classic mountain bike race, nor is it a gravel grinder, because it doesn’t fit into any of the categories defined by the UCI. Since the distance of the race is 200+ km, we would categorize it as an ultra-marathon mountain bike race on roads that happen to be extremely challenging.
  • Tour of the Dragon starts in Bumthang and travels 268 km over 4 mountain passes before finishing in Thimphu. It’s one of the toughest one-day mountain bike races in the world.

Nimalung Festival – 28 to 20 June, 2020

Nimalung Dratsang | Bumthang

For the final day of the festival, people also get the opportunity to observe Guru Tshengye cham and Drametse Nga Cham performed by the monks of Nimalung Dratshang.
