Bhutan

Lhuentse

The ancestral home of Bhutan's royal dynasty, and the source of the country's finest hand-woven textiles. Lhuentse lies in eastern Bhutan, the quietest part of the kingdom, known for its textiles, festivals and unhurried pace. Highlights include Lhuentse Dzong and Kurtoep weaving villages. A visit here is easiest with a local guide, who can explain what you are seeing, open doors that are hard to find alone and handle the permits Bhutan requires. You can see Lhuentse on our tours: Eastern Bhutan Discovery. Every journey is built around a licensed guide, a private vehicle and carefully chosen hotels or homestays — tell us your dates and interests and we will plan Lhuentse into a trip that fits.
