Discover the eye-opening story of the ‘Divine Madman’ as you explore Chimi Lhakhang, ‘the Temple of Fertility’. Join local pilgrims who come to receive fertility blessings or bring their babies for a naming ceremony, and take a walk around the temple grounds where the serene landscape is punctuated with an occasional phallic sculpture or eye-catching mural. Dating back to 1499, Chimi Lhakhang is inaccessible by road but can be reached by an easy 15-minute walk through rice paddies and mountain scenery.
