Legend has it that the Chorten Kora was built at a site where a young khando (dakini) from Tawang agreed to be buried alive therefore devotees from Arunachal Pradesh also flock to Trashiyangtse to attend this festival. Dakpa Kora is held on the 15th day of the 3rd lunar month corresponding to 28th February and Drukpa Kora (circumbulation by the Bhutanese) is held on the 30th day of the same month corresponding to 15th March every year.
