Overview
The stunning Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten stands atop a Punakha Valley ridge.

Story & Significance
Commissioned by Her Majesty the Queen Mother and consecrated in 1999, this chorten serves as a spiritual safeguard for Bhutan. Its deliberate design, from wrathful ground-floor deities to serene higher-level Buddhas, follows sacred texts to remove negative forces and promote global harmony.
