Tshechu which means day ten are annual religious Bhutanese festivals held in each district or dzongkhag of Bhutan on the tenth day of a month of the lunar Tibetan calendar. During the tshechu the monks perform mask dances known as cham. These chams are said to purify those who witness it. Not only that these chams contain the rich history and culture of Bhutan. The monks wear masks and perform different dances. These dances were mainly created by Guru Rinpoche and Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal. People wear different types of ghos and kiras.
