I wish you a wonderful new year and hope it brings you many blessings.

Get rid of the old to make place for the new, and I wish you happiness throughout the year! Best wishes for the New Year!

I am counting my blessings and sending more of them your way. I hope you have a fantastic time celebrating the New Year.

The New Year is like a blank page in a book; you hold the pen that will fill it in. It is your opportunity to write a story of your own life. Best wishes as the new year begin.

The Jambay Lhakhang Drup festival is held each year to commemorate the building of the temple and to honor Guru Rimpoche (Padmasambhava), an 8th-century Buddhist master who consecrated the Jambay Lhakhang temple.

The four-day festival features many different dances, but two are considered particularly sacred. The first is the Mewang, or Fire Dance, which is held in the evening to bless infertile women in the hope that they may later bear children.

The second is the Tercham, or Naked Dance, during which sixteen men dance around the temple, all completely naked, on the stroke of midnight. Why? Well, it apparently dates back to the 8th century, when a band of devils was causing havoc in the area. To distract the devils, the local men performed a naked dance, their unclothed antics leaving the devils spellbound and rendering them harmless. Far less messy than an exorcism.

The temple is undoubtedly one of the oldest temples to have been built in Bhutan. It is one of the 108 temples built by the Tibetan King Songtsen Gampo in the 7th century AD. The King is said to have built 108 temples in a day throughout the Himalayan regions. Of which Kichu Lhakhang in Paro and Jampa Lhakhang in Bumthang are two of them. Of the remaining temples most can be seen in Tibet.

What is Dzong?

Dzongs are traditional Bhutanese fortresses, built across the country during the 17th century as a defence against impending attacks from Tibet. They are uniquely constructed, with no iron nails to hold them together, as well as being decorated with traditional Bhutanese woodwork and intricate art.
Picture below shown is Tashichho Dzong, ‘Fortress of the Glorious Religion’ or
popularly known as Thimphu Dzong, is an impressive structure that houses the throne room and offices of the king, the secretariat and the ministries of home affairs and finance.

FESTIVALS OF THE YEAR

To commemorate the arrival of Buddhism, each of Bhutan’s 20 dzongkhags (districts), hold their own annual festival inviting people from surrounding villages to gather together for a series of costumed cham dances accompanied by the clash of cymbals and meditative beat of drums.

Among the most impressive are the Paro Festival (spring) and the Thimphu Festival (autumn), when thousands of people attend to celebrate and get together with old friends.Department of Tourism, Bhutan, Guide Association of Bhutan,The Bhutanese
