Tashichho Dzong, located in Bhutan's capital city of Thimphu, is a Buddhist monastery and fortress with a rich history. Originally built in the 13th century, it has been rebuilt several times due to fires and earthquakes. Today, it serves as the seat of Bhutan's government and houses the king's throne room, cabinet offices, and various ministries. With its stunning architecture and spiritual significance, Tashichho Dzong stands as a symbol of Bhutan's cultural heritage and administrative center.
