The Kingdom of Bhutan celebrated its 117th National Day on December 17, 2024. The event commemorates the coronation of Gongsar Wangchuk as the first king of a united Bhutan in 1907, a milestone that has been celebrated annually ever since. Every year, thousands of Bhutanese people gather with the Royal Family to celebrate National Day.
King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, Queen Jetsun Pema, their children, Crown Prince Jigme Namgyel, Prince Ugyen, and Princess Sonam Yangden, along with other members of the royal family, attended the celebrations at Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu.
They are often in the news. Hopefully we will see a lot more of them on this royal forum.

ReplyDeleteThese photos made me look up climate charts for Timphu. I expected this mountainous nation to be in full winter mode in December. Learned something again.
19 degrees Celsius today in Thimphu! That are temperatures we can only dream of a little north of the Alps!!!
