Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyel’s Relics returned to their owners and custodians

The exhibition on “Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyel: The Founding Father” closed on May 31, 2017. The exhibition was organized to commemorate the 400 years of the legacy of our founding father. The exhibition was opened on September 21, 2016 by our Royal Patron, Her Majesty Gyalyum Sangay Choden Wangchuck.

Relics belonging to monasteries and private owners in Gasa, Wangdue Phodrang and Thimphu were brought for the exhibition with due permission from the Zhung Dratshang and the Royal Government. With the closure of the exhibition, the relics are being respectfully returned to their original custodians/owners. The RTA would like to thank the Zhung Dratshang, Royal Government and owners of the relics for their support.
