Dates vary. The Trongsa Tshechu, held in the majestic Trongsa Dzong that commands the geographic center of the country, carries special significance because Trongsa is where the Wangchuck dynasty began. Every governor of Trongsa historically became the next king, and the weight of that history hangs in the mountain air. The cham here is performed with extra gravitas, and locals will tell you this is the real tshechu, not the Thimphu one.
