Enchanting Valleys To Vistas In Eastern Bhutan

A country that claims to have some of the most stunning valleys in the world is one that is packed with towering unspoilt mountains, tranquil rivers, breathtaking views, and, most importantly, “happiness.” Bhutan is a must-see destination for travelers from all around the world. It allows kids to recharge from the city’s chaos and learn about what nature has to offer. Bhutan has four distinct seasons, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in nature like never before. Best time to visit Bhutan is in the winter to enjoy the heat of Phobjikha valley, or in the summer to enjoy the cool breezes of Paro, Thimphu, and Haa valleys. 

#1. Luntshe Valley

It is also known as the Kurtoe Valley and is one of Bhutan’s valleys that is hidden deep in the northeast of the country. It has rocky mountain ranges, towering peaks, beautiful views, and dense forests. Bhutan’s legendary rulers were born in this valley. The picture in the valley is extremely stunning, with exposed cliffs hanging above the valley and rich conifer woodlands.

While in this lovely valley, you should also visit the Kilung Monastery, Lhuentse Dzong, Dungkar Nagtshang, and Khoma village. Lhuentse is well-known around the world for its skill in weaving a distinctive cloth known as Kishuthara. Beautiful nature, traditional textile art, and holy pilgrimage sites are just a few of the reasons why you should visit this location.

#2. Trongsa Valley

The Trongsa valley is a mountainside town in Bhutan’s heart, and is consequently known as the Himalayan Kingdom’s heart. It translates to “new village” in Dzongkha (Bhutanese), and it is placed against a backdrop of black mountains with breathtaking views of Bhutan’s neighboring valleys.

Trongsa was designated as a strategic route from the east to the west of Bhutan due to its location at a crossroads that connects other major regions of the country. Trongsa was also home to the Wangchuck dynasty. It has a significant historical significance in Bhutan, which is reflected in the district dzong and watchtower (Trongsa Dzong). Trongsa Dzong controlled over east-west trade for centuries, while the watchtower was converted into a hotel.

#3. Bumthang Valley 

Bumthang, also known as Choekhor valley, is Bhutan’s most famous valley, with four beautiful mountain valleys and numerous historic monasteries and sanctuaries. Without a doubt, Bumthang is one of Bhutan’s most spiritual and picturesque locations. Chumey, Ura, Tang, and Choekhor are its four valleys, each with a unique view of the country. Experience tranquility that will relieve you of the stress of modern life.
