This is said to be the tallest sitting Buddha in the world. It is still under construction but very majestic and is visible from most parts of Thimphu.

The statue of Buddha Dordenma is very beautiful. This tall statue of Buddha has a great view of Thimphu valley. It is not fully completed yet but seems close to completion. The statue as well as the temple inside in very nice and the place has a very relaxing and peaceful feeling. Definately a place to visit in Thimphu.

This is still under construction, and what is there is completely new. If you are a Buddhist, it is doubtless a must-see, but we aren’t. The statue itself was constructed in sections in China and assembled on site, but is nevertheless quite impressive. Panoramic views from the terrace area outside.

This is one of the most stunning buddhas I've seen. The sheer size is amazing, and the view of the valley below is spectacular.
