One of Four

Performing the Dance of the Four Stags (Sha Tsam): one of the traditional Bhutanese dances.

 

The Tourism Council of Bhutan says this about it: "A dance that depicts Guru Rinpoche subduing the God of Wind who is believed to have created unhappiness on earth. Dancers dress as stags in yellow knee length dress and masks of the deer. The stag represents the mount of the God."
