Folk Heritage Museum Review

Timphu is located in the western part of Bhutan, in a basin of 2,400 meters high in the Himalayas, and is close to the Wong Chu River Valley, officially became the capital of Bhutan in 1962. Thimphu was first built in the 13th century, and the lama of Bhutan's religious father, Pajiao Dagang Spugo (Phajo Dagon Shipgo), built a small temple here. In 1641, Shabudon I Awan Namgar converted the temple into a larger castle. Most of Thimphu's original buildings were destroyed by fire and earthquake, and were rebuilt many times, especially after the restoration of Tashibut Castle in 1961, Thimphu developed rapidly. Since 1955, Thimphu has been the political, economic, military, cultural and religious center of the Kingdom of Bhutan. The palaces, Parliament Houses, High Courts, Army Headquarters, Police Headquarters, Central Monastery, Heads of Government and other important departments of Bhutan are located in Thimphu.

The Folk Museum is an old old house in the local area, and you can see the life of the former Bhutanese. There are many tools for life inside. The interesting thing is that the wooden box for bathing is on the grass, the backyard of the home, open-air. Small wooden box.

Very famous folk museum, mystery on the other end of the Himalayas

From the outside, it is not visible at all. It is a attraction. The exterior is very shabby, but there are a lot of things in the collection. You can go and see a lot.

Usually it's okay, because the venue is really big, and when there are many people, I don't feel that I have to pay for the visit, and I can decide for myself.
