About this property
Few visitors make it to Lhuentse. It is a day’s drive north of Mongar up the Kuri Chhu, through gorges and terraced hamlets, to a dzong perched on a bluff above the river — the ancestral district of Bhutan’s royal family, and the source of the country’s finest kishuthara weaving, done in the villages around Khoma.
Beds here are scarce and simple, and the Dratshang guest house is exactly that: plain, clean rooms attached to the monastic body, in a place where the alternative is turning round and driving back. Guests who make the journey come for the weaving, the dzong and the feeling of having reached somewhere genuinely remote — not for the room.
Why we like it
- In Lhuentse, the ancestral district of Bhutan's royal family
- Within reach of the Khoma weaving villages, home of kishuthara silk
