National Library :

Visit to National Library, which houses an extensive collection of Buddhist literature, with some works dating back several hundred years. It was opened in 1967 to preserve the ancient Dzongkha texts and act as a repository for thousands of old religious books and manuscripts as well as the wooden blog used for printing. An altar located in the entrance lobby has statues of some of the most important historic figures- Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyel, Pema Lingpa & Guru Padmasambhava.

They are dedicated fully to the preservation and promotion of the rich literary, cultural and religious heritage of our country.
