			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: small;">Trashiyangtse is also home to the black necked crane especially in Bumdeling. This is <img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-902" src="http://www.bhutanholiday.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/trashiyangtse-300x224.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="224" />the eastern most part of Bhutan and borders Arunachal Pradesh in India.<strong>The following are some of the prominent places to visit in Trashiyangtse</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: small;"><strong>Chorten Kora: </strong>It is similar to the stupa of Boudhanath in Nepal and was built in 1740.Chorten Kora festival which is very different from the other festivals in Bhutan, as not only the Bhutanese, but also the people from Arunachal Prdesh in India, gathers for the festival. During the festival, as an added bonus, you could also play the “game of love”, which usually ends in marriages!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: small;"><strong>Zorig Chusum Institute: </strong>Located near Chorten Kora in Trashi Yangtse.The institute was established in 1997 as a Rigney School and has five areas of studies.<br />
I.	Painting<br />
II.	Silversmith<br />
III.	Embroidery<br />
IV.	Carving and<br />
V.	Lacquering.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: small;"><strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-903" src="http://www.bhutanholiday.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/gom-kora-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" />Chorten Kora: </strong>It is similar to the stupa of Boudhanath in Nepal and was built in 1740.Chorten Kora festival which is very different from the other festivals in Bhutan, as not only the Bhutanese, but also the people from Arunachal Prdesh in India, gathers for the festival.

<p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: small;"><strong>Bumdeling:</strong>It is about two to three hours walk north of Chorten Kora. It is the roosting place for the flock of black necked cranes. Last year the cranes arrived on 6th Nov, 2005 bringing the total crane count to 131. The reason for decreasing number has been attributed to loss of feeding grounds caused by heavy annual floods of the Kulong River. The concrete walls that have been built by the Bumdeling Wildlife Sanctuary have been repeatedly washed away.</span></p>
