  7. Beautiful family. What a presence. Queen Jetsun is young and a beautiful woman but what I find to be really special is that she looks, in a very positive way, a much older woman. She looks very young and beautiful but more wise than her age. 💖

  8. The many photos (past and present) of this royal couple and their adorable kids, as well as their colourful national dress, and the warm humanity they always seem to exude always bring me joy.
