Kurjey Tsechu is held on the 10th day of 5th month of Bhutanese calendar in Kurjey Lhakhang in Bumthang. This Tsechu is mainly celebrated as the birth anniversary of Guru Rinpoche. In this Tsechu we can witness the mask dance performed by the monks with utmost zeal and grandeur. The one-day festival concludes at the unfurling of a Guru Thangka Thongdrol. The Kurjey festival is an important occasion not only for the local people of Bumthang but also for all Bhutanese.
