Trashiyangtse was previously part of Trashigang Dzongkhag but became a full-fledged Dzongkhag in 1993. To the north, it shares an international border with the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh, and cross-border trade between the two regions still exists. The new settlement lies three kilometers from the old dzong, near Chorten Kora.
Trashiyangtse, also known as Yangtse, is ideal for a day excursion from the neighboring district of Trashigang. It is also home to the Bumdeling Wildlife Sanctuary, which spans two other Dzongkhags and is one of Bhutan’s largest protected areas.
Trashiyangtse has two dzongs, both of which still stand today.
The area is renowned for its finely crafted cups and bowls made from maple and avocado wood, using water-driven and treadle lathes. Trashiyangtse is also famous for producing Desho, traditional Bhutanese paper.
