As a Mahayana kingdom, Bhutan showcases a mosaic of festivals that illuminates the sanctity of Buddhism which is deeply revered and adhered to. Tshechus are one of the kinds and most dramatic of all, which remains the highlight of the social year for most Bhutanese communities. Various mask dances dating back to 8th centuries are being performed during the Tshechus.
