For many people who enter Bhutan via road, their first point of entry into the country will be the charming border town of Phuentsholing. The Land of the Thunder Dragon has many hidden gems to offer, this little town is undoubtedly one of those.

Phuentsholing is not like other more busy cities in Bhutan, for instance, Thimphu or Paro. Time moves here at a very slow pace. Yet it holds its own strange beauty.

There are several places in Phuentsholing that one must-see. There are nearly 8 spots in the town popular with tourists. Of these, some of the most prominent are Bhutan Gate, Zangto Pelri Lhakhang and the park adjacent to the Lhakhang. Another spectacular sightseeing spot in the town is the Torsa River Side. This river traces it commences in the Chumba valley in China. From China, it flows to Bhutan where it is known as the Amo Chhu river.

Are you looking for some peace and quiet far away from the noisy city crowds? Then a walk along the Torsa riverside is perfect for you.  The gently flowing river, trees framing its banks and a soft wind ruffling your hair are sure to leave you relaxed and rejuvenated. Located far from the crowds and chaos, Torsa provides you with the perfect opportunity to soak in the serenity of its riverside. It takes a maximum of 2 hours to enjoy the whole riverside to its fullest.

It is also an excellent spot for bird watching and nature photography. About 15-20 minutes further ahead are the Torsa tea gardens which also serve as an excellent photography spot. Lush green and majestic, make sure you drop in to visit the Tea Gardens if you visit the riverside.
