Bhutan – 2nd day in Thimphu

We started the day by visiting one of the largest Buddha images in the world. – the Buddha Dordenma statue.

We admired the wonderful view and had some fun with the camera…

As my brother said, we have 12 people on our trip and they are all twins!!

This temple is beautifully decorated inside and out although photos are not allowed on the inside.

We then hiked to the next temple. It was described as easy going. Bits of uphill followed by bits of flat etc

.

Watch to the end…!
