Tsirang District

Tsirang District (Dzongkha: རྩི་རང་རྫོང་ཁག།; Wylie: tsi-rang rdzong-khag; previously Chirang) is one of the 20 dzongkhags (districts) of Bhutan. The administrative center of the district is Damphu.

Tsirang is noted for its gentle slopes and mild climates. The dzongkhag is also noted for its rich biodiversity; however, it is one of the few dzongkhags without a protected area. One of Bhutan's longest rivers, the Punatsang Chhu flows through the district. Lhoptshampa, Ngalong and other ethnic groups resides in the district. Tsirang Toed Ngalong ( North Tsirang Ngalong ) are the early settlers of the district predating later Lhoptshampa settlers. It has many beautiful places such as Rigsum Pemai Dumra, Pemachoeling Heritage Forest, Tsirang Namgyel Chholing Dratshang, and Nye.
