Bhutan - break dancing and face painting

Having arrived in Bhutan on a Saturday and having perceived rather quickly the absence of things western, I was more than surprised on Sunday to encounter a festival for children in the center of Thimphu that featured break dancing and face painting.
The festival was presented by Tarayana, an agency under the sponsorship of Her Majesty the Quenn, Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuck. The intention of this Foundation is to offer solutions to the problems of the disadvantaged. The work of the foundation is impressive. Stay tuned and I will tell you more about it tomorrow.
As to the pictures above, you will see in subsequent pictures how very unusual the site of break dancing and face painting was. In fact, in the 3 weeks that I was in the country I never saw any thing occur like it again. I couldn't help wondering where and how these kids learned to break dance.
