After breakfast, embark on a scenic drive up to the breathtaking Dochu-la pass, standing at an elevation of 3,088 meters (10,130 feet). Pausing briefly at this vantage point, we marvel at the panoramic views while admiring the adorned chorten, mani wall, and fluttering prayer flags that embellish the highest point along the road.
At Dochula Pass, we encounter the remarkable sight of 108 chortens, known as Druk Wangyal Chortens, meticulously crafted by Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuk, the esteemed Queen Mother.
Continue your drive to Gangtey.
Upon arrival in the valley of Gangtey, you’re greeted by a breathtaking landscape of unparalleled beauty. The vast expanse of the valley, devoid of trees, juxtaposed against the backdrop of surrounding hillsides, offer a rare and awe-inspiring sight.
Drive time: approximately 5 hours.
