Blessed Rainy Day

Blessed Rainy Day is a public and religious holiday in Bhutan that marks the end of the monsoon season and the beginning of the harvest season.

Event Suggestions:
• Learn about Bhutanese seasonal traditions and the meaning of purification
• Share a water-themed reflection activity about renewal and gratitude
• Explore Bhutanese food, dress, landscapes, and cultural practices
