With soothing cool breezes of Kuri-chhu, the valley offers a panoramic view of its people – their lives and livelihoods; villages and settlements; and its physical features. <strong>The following are some of the prominent places to visit in Lhuntse </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: small;"><strong>Visit Lhuntse for its famous textile collection in Khoma village: </strong>Enjoy a walk from Khurbazam to Khoma Village (around 2 hours each way over clear flat paths), where some of the most famous and expensive textiles are woven in silk and cotton. Khoma village is famous for distinctive Kishuthara weaving and it is the main income source of the villagers. You will see many traditional back‐strap looms in the in their homes. Kishuthara is a silk on silk weaving technique with intricate hand laced patterns. It is the most expensive textile in Bhutan and highly sought after by collectors. We spend a full day in Khoma to see this traditional form of weaving and learn how the local people make vegetable dyes. </span></p>
