Tango Monastery, located near Thimphu, Bhutan, is a significant Buddhist monastic college. The trek to Tango Monastery involves a moderately challenging uphill hike, making it less accessible for individuals with mobility issues. Solo visits are possible, but a guided tour provides deeper insights into the monastery's history and religious significance. The best time to visit is during the spring and autumn months, avoiding the monsoon season (June-August) when trails can be slippery. A visit typically lasts 3-5 hours, including the hike. While there isn't a direct entrance fee, donations are appreciated, and transportation costs should be factored in. Note that appropriate attire is required (covering shoulders and legs) when visiting religious sites in Bhutan.
