Wolfgang's photos with the keyword: Prayer flags

Before we entered the Kurjey Lhakhang complex there is a chorten with many prayer flags beside the entrance port.

Hundreds of prayer flags flutter at the panorama view point over Thimphu.

The origin of Kyichu Lhakhang dates back to the seventh century, it is one of the oldest and most sacred shrines of Bhutan (the other is Jambey Lhakhang in Bumthang). Kyichu Lhakhang is composed of twin temples, the first temple was built by Buddhist Tibetan King, Songtsen Gampo in the 7th century and in 1968, H.M. Ashi Kessang, the Queen Mother of Bhutan, arranged for a second temple to be built alongside the first one, in same style.
