<p><strong>Mongar </strong><em> - Day excursion to Lhuentse and Khoma Village (±75 Kms / ±3 Hrs)</em></p>
Itineary Detail
<p>Today, drive on a mountainous road alongside cliffs, above the river valley to Lhuentse in the remote and ancient region of Kurtoe and stop briefly to visit the <strong>Lhuentse Dzong</strong>, built in the 1600s and then continue further on to the Khurbazam Village from where we begin a hike to the Khoma Village. Almost all 30 houses in the village have black-strap looms for “kushutara” or brocaded dress. Motifs are created by four supplementary wefts inter-worked around the warp elements so that they appear to ride the surface of the cloth like embroidery.</p> <p>Then the landscape of <strong>Khoma</strong> is spectacular, with stark cliffs towering above river gorges and dense coniferous forests. We also travel to Takilia to visit the 154 ft tall statue of Guru Nangsa Zelnan, situated 15 km or 9.4 miles from Tagmochhu Chazam (bridge) on a hill above Tangmachhu village. Late afternoon, you retrace our drive to Mongar.</p>
