Ringtone song is a very large Buddhist monastery. I am highly influenced by Buddhism. It was a dream come true moment when I visited Rinpung Dzong on Nepal Tibet Bhutan tour. It is also a fortress in the Paro district of Bhutan. Paro district is a valley, river and town and Bhutan. It was a great experience to visit the historical places of Bhutan. One of them was the Paro district. It was one of the centers in Bhutan where trade goods and the invaders came over here. Their destination was the head of the valley. The Invaders were from Tibet. Therefore the culture of Tibet can easily be seen. The Rinpung Dzong is located on the Drukpa lineage of Kagya School. This monastery may become one of the world heritage sites of UNESCO. It is present in the tentative list for UNESCO inclusion.

National Museum of Bhutan
There is Deyangkha temple outside the main monastery. This monastery was built in the year 1649 and the year 1968, it was established as the home of the National Museum of Bhutan. This Museum is established just about the monastery. There are many interesting facts to the National Museum of Bhutan. It is a cultural museum just above the monastery. It is located in the Paro district in the west of Bhutan. It is the development of very necessary infrastructure which was highly required for maintaining the beautiful masterpieces of bronze statues and paintings. The National Museum has stunning finest specimens of Bhutanese art.
The Annual Festival
There is a traditional annual festival that is called as Tschechu; it is celebrated with extreme excitement. The time to celebrate this festival is from the 11th to the 15th day of the second month. This second month is not according to the English calendar, but according to the local Gregorian Calendar of Bhutan. There is a procession that takes place during the celebration of the festival. Some people take pictures of the festival and the procession.
Manifestations of Padmasambhava
After the celebration and other activities are completed, there is a great secret thong drill banner Thangka the defects of the eight signs of Padmasambhava. It is only and only displayed for the ordinary people in the early morning hours. This is so because the people in Bhutan have been following the tradition of not allowing the sunlight to fall on. Padmasambhava was a Buddhist master from the Indian subcontinent. He was a historical Padmasambhava. He was the one who constructed the first Buddhist monastery in Tibet. So if you go on Nepal Bhutan Tibet tour packages, you may have the opportunity to visit Padmasambhava. The literal meaning of Padmasambhava is Lotus-born.
