Very interesting and informative. Lyenpo Rinpoche, you are the living legend of this nation.

[@rigdendorji4458]

He saved our country on many occasions against the backdrop of changes in international politics. During his term he navigated Bhutan's legal system in great way to counter international relations which would eventually benefited our Kings, Country and People.

Bhutan builders was zhabdrung at 1616 to 1907

[@Rage25-j9t]

Tourism industry was built by zhabdrung

[@kartou2]

Choten - What an interesting comment! It would indeed be marvellous to be able to talk to the Shabdrung - but a bit difficult, I think. Nevertheless the Shabdrung's footsteps in the sands of time are very apparent when we look at his lasting achievements and legacy.
