SIX SENSES THIMPHU

During the day, immerse yourself in the Bhutanese history and culture with visits to medieval dzongs, and the traditional arts and crafts of Bhutan. With the capital a stone’s throw away, you can explore the many incredible attractions which showcase the country's rich diversity.

As evening approaches, settle into a truly delicious dinner out on the terrace, letting the inky night sky wrap the valley in darkness. Take in the spectacle of the peppering of monastic lights in the distant valley, and let the utter quiet and tranquillity of Six Senses wash over you.
