About

Archery (Dha) is Bhutan's national sport. Targets are a tiny 30cm rectangle placed 145 metres away. Traditional teams perform victory dances and sing insults at opponents between shots. A 2-hour session gives you a hands-on introduction: traditional bamboo bow training, a few dozen practice shots, and a mini-tournament with local club members. Warning: you will miss.
