The sprawling valley was largely wooded and sparsely populated until 1951, when the 13<sup>th</sup> century old Tashichho Dzong, was re-built and declared the official capital. Today, the city sprawls across 26 square kilometres along the Wangchhu river. Norzin Lam, the one-way traffic lane, is the hub of the city with rows of shops that sell almost everything. The city has no traffic lights and instead you will see a traffic policeman with fluid arm movements directing traffic flows in the city.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The city has some swanky restaurants, bars and hotels to fulfill your need.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;</span>The open space around the clock tower is the city s  town square that hosts entertainment programmes.

The high street with its row of colourful shops and restaurants form the main town. With recent town planning and urban development, the town is slowly growing in size. About hundred metres from the main street, lies the majestic Rinpung Dzong and a little way up, stands the formidable ancient watchtower which is now the National Museum.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;</span>The only international airport in the country is located in the Paro valley.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The fertile valley is also known to produce the best red rice in the country. It holds a significant place in the history as well as it was one of the main trading routes with Tibet and it was here in the valley that many battles were been fought with the invaders from the north. The magnificent ruins of the Drukgyal Dzong overlooking Mt. Jhomolhari are the living proof of the ancient glories.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="1" face="Arial"><a href="#top">back to top</a></font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><a name="Phuentsholing"><font face="Arial" color="#FF6600" size="3">Phuentsholing</font></a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">Phuentsholing is the thriving commercial city situated at the foothills of the Himalayas bordering India, some five hours drive from Thimphu. The city which is a gateway to Bhutan from neighbouring India saw its growth when the first road  the Phuentsholing-Thimphu highway - was constructed in 1962. From then on, Phuentsholing has never looked back  a small cluster of huts gave way to a maze of multi-storey buildings, stretching across the plains, right up the base of the hills. All the financial institutions have their headquarters here along with a number of other industries and factories.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="1" face="Arial"><a href="#top">back to top</a></font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><a name="Punakha"><font size="3"><font face="Arial" color="#FF6600">Punakha</font> <font face="Arial"> <o:p> </o:p> </font> </b> </font></b> </a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The two towns of Punakha and Wangdue Phodrang are about 20 km away from each other and lie low in the warm valley along the Puna Tsang Chhu river.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </span>The low elevation means the valley enjoys the warm subtropical climate. You will see a variety of tropical fruits like oranges, bananas and papayas growing in the valley. The magnificent Punakha Dzong that lies in-between the two rivers of Mochhu and Pochhu is situated in the old Punakha town. The new town, Khuruthang, was developed recently and lies in the wide valley some way down the river. Punakha was the former winter capital and even today the tradition of moving the monastic body from Thimphu to Punakha in the winter season is still practiced.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="1" face="Arial"><a href="#top">back to top</a></font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><a name="Wangdue Phodrang"><font size="3"><font face="Arial" color="#FF6600">Wangdue</font><font size="3" face="Arial"> </font><font face="Arial" color="#FF6600"> Phodrang</font></font></a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The majestic Wangdue Dzong sits on a ridge overlooking the Puna Tsang Chhu river and the Wangdue Phodrang bridge. The town has now moved to Bajo down in the valley by the Puna Tsang Chhu.

The valley was opened to tourists recently. The valley is scattered with some interesting villages in scenic locales.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The Haa valley can be reached via two roads  one is from Paro and is a couple of hours drive across the beautiful Chele la pass.

Until recently, the nearest road head was the Goen Damji village where one had to walk a good 4-6 hours to reach the town. But now the rough road leads up to Baychhu, considerably shortening the walk. </font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The town is a cluster of small shops, a police post, a clinic and a school. The Gasa Dzong, which was built in 1646 by Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal, sits magnificently atop a hill overlooking the town houses. Gasa is well known for its hot springs which sees many visitors from all over the country to soak in its healing powers. The hot springs are located a couple of hours walk deep down in the valley. Gasa also serves as the district headquarters to the remote villages of Laya and Lunana.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="1" face="Arial"><a href="#top">back to top</a></font></span></p> <p align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><a name="Phobjikha (Gangtey)"><font face="Arial" color="#FF6600" size="3">Phobjikha (Gangtey)</font></a><font face="Arial" size="5" color="#FF6600"><o:p> </font><font face="Arial"> </o:p></font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The beautiful glacial valley of Phobjikha falls under Wangdue Phodrang Dzongkhag (district).

Hence, the valley is without electricity. In its place the people are encouraged to use solar powered cells or generators for power. The enchanting Gangtey village and the famous Gangtey monastery are perched on the hilltop, overlooking the valley.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="1" face="Arial"><a href="#top">back to top</a></font></span></p> <p align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><a name="Bumthang"><font color="#FF6600" size="3"><font face="Arial">Bumthang<o:p> </font><font face="Arial"> </o:p> </font> </font></b> </a></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The central valley of Bumthang is often known as the spiritual and cultural nerve of the country. The valley is blessed with ancient and sacred monasteries dating back centuries. The four valleys of Chumey, Choekhor, Tang and Ura make up Bumthang. The main urban centre or the capital of the district is the Jakar town located in the lush green Choekhor valley.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">Buckwheat is the staple food of the Bumthaps (people of Bumthang). The valley is also a major producer of apple juice, apple cider and a variety of Swiss cheeses. Bumthang is also famous for its beautiful woven woollen textiles called Yathra. Winters are very cold with some snowfalls. The strong winds sweeping across the valley worsens the condition. But summers are warm and pleasant with plenty of sunshine.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="1" face="Arial"><a href="#top">back to top</a></font></span></p> <p align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><a name="Mongar"><font face="Arial" color="#FF6600" size="3">Mongar</font></a><font face="Arial" size="5" color="#FF6600"><o:p> </font><font face="Arial"> </o:p></font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">Unlike the towns and villages in western Bhutan, settlements in the East are mostly located on hills given to the steep topography.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;</span>Mongar is a growing and bustling town with many development activities taking place in recent years.

The Mithidang Chhu, a small stream runs right through the town adding its charm to the town. Many shops, bars and restaurants are located around the  Small Square with a huge prayer wheel at the centre where the town s people sit and chat in the evenings to end the activity of the day.

Here, the Bhutanese easily mix with their Indian neighbours who are mostly day workers who cross the border to work.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"><span lang="EN-GB"><font size="2" face="Arial">The subtropical region means the weather can be pretty warm in the summers with occasional torrential rains.
