The transcendent town of Bhutan rests in North East of Thimpu. The traditional Bhutanese life style still reflects in its old wooden slatted houses that line up on the hill side. The impregnable Dzong built in 1648 AD is the lifeline of the people. Trongsa is the ancestral home of the Royal Family. The people are engaged in handloom textile, for their economic prosperity.
