King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck and Queen Jetsun Pema shared a series of family photos taken during their private time with their children, Prince Jigme Namgyel, Prince Jigme Ugyen, and Princess Sonam Yangden, during their recent state visit to Mongolia. The King and Queen carried out a week-long state visit to the country upon the invitation of President Ukhnaa Khurelsukh. The photos were taken by photographer Gan Ulzii Gonchig.
Beautiful pictures !!
ردحذفI would love to visit Mongolia. What a rich culture. It looks like a beautiful place. The family is so charming. The children are adorable.
ردحذفI assume the photos were taken in Bhutan.
حذفThe subject is about the royalty in Bhutan, not Mongolia
حذفI agree Mongolia is a beautiful place to visit.
حذفMary T at 08:40, read the capture, please.
حذفHello Anon 13:15
حذفYou said “The subject is about the royalty in Bhutan, not Mongolia”.
You are right and, you know, Helen must block comments that don’t stick to the subject.
Helps people like me who are a bit “thick” to understand what’s going on.
Is the capture wrong then ? Just Me understood it like I did. The capture said that the pictures were taken during their private time with the children during their recent visit to Mongolia. Never been to Mongolia but the pictures taken in the desert and the ride on the camels accompanied by the Mongolian camel drivers (picture N°4) does not look like Bhutan.
حذفAnon at 18/7 18:38, you are quite right. You have read the capture as I did (I always read the capture first). It says "a series of family photos.... TAKEN DURING their recent state visit to Mongolia". Is it really too hard for some people to read first what it is about? 🙈.
حذفWhat a lovely family!
ردحذفA beautiful mix of traditional and modern, fun and friendly. The children are adorable.
My best wishes to them all.

ردحذفQuel bonheur que de voir toute la famille au cours de leur voyage en Mongolie ; j'espère que nous verrons beaucoup d'autres photos dès leur retour dans leur pays - Je craque quand je vois la petite princesse comme d'ailleurs le roi
ردحذفqui a l'air gaga devant elle !
De très belles photos d'une famille aimante.
ردحذفJ'aime l'amour, la tendresse affichés de ce père pour sa fille .
La reine et ses fils ne sont pas en reste.
Et quelle décontraction d'eux tous!
I mean! who knew they wear t-shirts, sneakers, ride electric bikes!
ردحذفthey always seemed to be very traditional and unique i admire them for that
They only dress traditional (formal) when on state visit or when other kings or princes visit them. In their free time they are dressed like modern people. I saw pictures of them earlier taken during a holiday, don't remember where or when, but I remember they all were dressed in up-to-date clothes.
حذفQuelle belle aventure pour tous ! J'aime la photo avec les chameaux et la dernière aussi, quel décor ! La petite fille est mignonne, c'est touchant de voir son papa plein de tendresse. Paloma.
ردحذفLove this king and queen and the children. Perfect family. I hope the king will not get another wife as is the custom.
ردحذفHe promised not to take another wife, hope he will keep his promise.
حذفIt is not the customary thing to do in Bhutan. In fact, the country's laws and religious/spiritual (Buddhist) beliefs are against polygamy. I will now explain why the Spiritual Leader of Bhutan once made a very rare and extremely unusual exception for King Jigme Singye Wangchuck (the current king's father) to marry four sisters. It all had to do with making amends toward the sisters' family, the Dorjis, who had to take a huge blow by the Wangchuck Dynasty in the early 1930s, some sort of bitter feud, resulting in the death of the Dorji's patriarch then. To mend the rift between the Wangchucks and the Dorjis, it was suggested that Jigme Singye would take all four daughters of the Dorji family as his wives in 1979. It had to pass legislation and also to get the approval of the Highest Religious Leader of the country, the Je Khenpo. After that was obtained, the then king took all four of them for his wives. It all went quite well and did not create much drama. But for King Jigme Khesar (current king), polygamy is not an option. The old due has been settled long since.

ردحذفLovely family on holiday in Mongolia. Adorable children.
ردحذفWow, when did these 2 boys get so big? Fastest-growing royal kids ever, seems like they were just born. Baby sister is gorgeous. Beautiful family. ~~Ruthie
ردحذفBeautiful photos of a beautiful family! What an amazingly beautiful place Mongolia is. Love seeing this royal family in a more relaxed setting wearing what must casual clothes. The 3 children are so cute--and the baby princess is precious--thinking she might just be a daddy's girl by that big smile in the first picture.
ردحذفJanet
