Simply Bhutan
About This Museum
People don't just come to Simply Bhutan to see artifacts behind glass; they come to feel like they've stepped directly into a living, breathing Bhutanese village. You can try your hand at archery, the national sport, or watch a master craftsman demonstrate ancient woodworking techniques. The air is often filled with the sound of traditional music and the sight of vibrant cultural dances performed by the staff. It’s an interactive celebration of heritage that’s as fun as it is educational.
Collection Highlights
Highlights include hands-on archery lessons, live demonstrations of traditional crafts like 'thangka' painting and bamboo weaving, and daily performances of folk songs and dances.
Visitor Information
Wear comfortable shoes for walking on the compacted earth 'village' paths, and don't miss the chance to sample a complimentary cup of butter tea in one of the replica traditional houses.
Architecture & Building
The museum is designed as a collection of small, traditional-style Bhutanese buildings with rammed earth walls, intricately painted wooden window frames, and slanted roofs, creating the genuine feel of a small hamlet.
