Simtokha Dzong

Peaceful and a new experience

It was such a nice experience. You can get an authentic experience walking into the dzong. Once you go inside the more sacred space, cameras are not allowed, but you are able to hear and see the monks...

Calm and old Dzong

When we visited some of the monks were sat outside and were having an English exam. We waited a while and went inside. I understand it's the oldest fortress in Bhutan.

Simtokha Dzong

One of the oldest Dzongs in Bhutan and of particular significance because of its association with Shabdrung the man who unified Bhutan. It is small and very personal.
