20 April 201, Thimphu: The Bhutanese today observed Shabdrung Kuchoe commemorating the passing of Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal, the Unifier of Bhutan, in 1651 CE. On this Death Anniversary of Shabdrung, this year falling on a weekend, so holiday goodbye :( devotees go to temples to pray and circumambulate the chortens for blessings and spiritual peace... Today evening I visited the Jigme Dorji Wangchuck Memorial Chorten in Thimphu and just happened to shoot this brief footage on the evening of Shabdrung Kuchoe and put it online at www.BhutanRebirth.com...
