Wangduechhoeling Palace, built in 1857 as a private residence for the legendary Bhutanese warrior Trongsa Penlop Jigme Namgyel, is situated along the Chamkhar River in central Bhutan, surrounded by the lush fields of the Jakar valley.
The palace was the birthplace of Bhutan’s first king, Ugyen Wangchuck, and served as the seat of national power in the early 20th century. Despite its neglect in the following decades, the palace remains a quintessential example of 19th-century Bhutanese architecture, featuring white stone walls, wattle-and-daub partitions, and richly ornamented timber details. It houses priceless murals, texts, sculptures, and textiles.
