Overview

Dochu-la is the first mountain pass in the western part of Bhutan under Thimphu District. The ridges are clad with thousands of colorful prayer flags further levitated by the 108 Druk Wangyal chortens, providing a spectacular view. On the hill top stands the Druk Wangyal Lhakhang overseeing the whole pass. On a clear day, the panoramic views of the Himalayan mountain range are simply breathtaking.
