Our Bumthang correspondent Wangchuk Tobgay says the Zangtopelri Lhakhang was built over a period of seven years with financial assistance from Her Majesty the Queen Mother Ashi Kesang Choden Wangchuck.
It was built in memory of her grandfather Gongzim Ugyen Dorji, her grand aunt Ane Thukten Wangmo and her parents Gongzim Sonam Tobgye Dorji and Mayum Choying Wangmo Dorji.
It is also for the well being of the nation and all sentient beings.

Her Majesty the Queen Mother also constructed a three storied Ka-gong Phursum Lhakhang at Kurje.
