Next, explore the National Library, home to an extensive collection of priceless Buddhist manuscripts. Continue to the Institute for Zorig Chusum, commonly known as the Painting School, followed by the Textile Museum and Simply Bhutan, a living museum and studio that captures the rich cultural heritage of the Bhutanese people.

According to legend, Guru Rinpoche flew to this location on the back of a tigress to subdue a local demon and meditated here for three months. The hike up takes approximately 2 hours at a steady pace. Although the main building was destroyed by fire in 1998, it was beautifully restored by 2001.
