I firmly believe in learning through experience and this time I got the opportunity to participate in the 5th Royal Highland Festival to experience and learn about work, life, culture and many more. Well, I must admit that the experiences were been overwhelming and worth all the hardships.
The 5th Royal Highland festival was held from 23/10/2022 to 24/10/2022 and the festival was graced by His Majesty the King. Various products were displayed by all the highland Dzongkhags and agencies.
For Wangdue Phodrang Dzongkhag, it was spearheaded by Dzongkhag Livestock Officer. We displayed the products such as Gauda cheese, Rasgulla made from pure yak milk, bamboo products and various other products all made from Yak hair. In addition to the product display, various cultural programmes and competitions among the Dzongkhags were held to entertain the audience.
The highlight of the festival was the decoration of main highland animals such as yak and horse. Wangdue Dzongkhag was quite fortunate to win some of the competitions but the experience was worth more than the prizes.
Looking at the number of visitors the festival attracted, I saw a lot of products Laya can offer to the visitors and I felt it all starts offering a simple and clean homestay to the visitors.
I have also noticed that it is the warm hospitality that the owners offer to the visitors that is making every visitor want to visit the place again. So, if Layaps can offer a clean place to stay in and a warm heart then nothing would stop the visitors from visiting Laya every year.
