Haa, the mythic valley of the guardian spirit, Aap Chhundu, is the apt place to lose your self in the natural beauty of nature and experience the local culture, cuisine and people. Don’t forget to taste the hearty Haapi Hoentoe, the buckwheat dumplings filled with grated turnip, mushrooms and other ingredients. Hitch a yak ride or listen to the Haapi Ausa, the song and dance that extols the virtue of the Haapa’s yaks. You can also see the White Poppy (Meconopsis superba) endemic to Haa alone. Haa is two hours’ drive from Paro. The Haa Summer Festival is held every 1^st weekend of July.
