thimpu, bhutan
Spent the last two days at the epic annual festival called Punaka Dromchoe. The festival is a week long. People walk from villages sometimes 30 kms away. The colors, smells, dancing, faces, masks, costumes, smiles, reverance and compassion are overwhelmingly beautiful. Today was the one day of the year that a massive tonka portraying Zhabdrung (the "man who unified bhutan") was unfurled and displayed. People are fired up.
