Phil's All Embracing Bhutan Slide Show
Paro Temples



This is the chorten/stupa holding the cremated remains of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.


Our last temple stop in Paro was Dungtse Lhakhang, one of 108 temples built in 1433, by the "Iron Bridge Builder", as the legend goes. This is a rare circular temple, and is practically pitch black inside. We had to bring in our flashlights to see the awesomely beautiful frescoes and statues inside this 4 story temple.
