Chakar Lhakhang

Sitting graciously on the edge of a captivating plateau, Chakar Lhakhang or the ‘Iron Castle’ was once the residence of a king called Sendhaka (or Sintu Raja). Dating back to the 8th century, a saint named Dorje Lingpa founded a temple on the site during the 14th century, and hence today it has become a devout religious site among the locals.

A scenic display of Bhutanese architecture, Chakar Lhakhang has a golden pinnacle and is made of stones. Built in the form of a cluster of houses, the temple stocks a large number of ancient books and an elaborate chapel which is private. Chakar Lhakhang hosts the annual festival of Jampa Lhakhang, which is take care by the head lama of Chakar Lhakhang.
