Beautiful temple and well maintained park. Its around 45 years old structure. Good place to sit and relax, can come with family, kids, friends. It has Colourful fountain inside it which is quite an attraction specially for kids. During the day it’s quite a serene.

A beautiful temple to visit in Phuentsholing during mornings as well as evening. Both timings give different experiences because the lighting changes. I saw a lot of Buddhist prayers happening in the morning. The night is as beautiful with citizens visiting probably for their daily ritual or relaxing in the small park in the temple area.

One of the cynosures of the Phuentsholing town. It's a Buddhist temple. People from all walks of life congregate here for a wisp of fresh air and seek refuge in the Buddhist doctrine. It has prayer wheels, a park, and some site beautifications done making an iconic structure in the town. Note: this site has been plotted twice. The other one is "Zangtopelri" and I didn't realise I had already reviewed it years ago. It, as it seems, is the only place in the town that is quaint and refreshing amidst the hustle and bustle in its surrounding spaces. It is also an instant attraction to the people passing by the same particularly, the Indian residents. I have often seen them frequent this place for site-seeing and some clicks. The place is suitable for a visit for people of all ages. As you can see, there are some elderly who come here to pray and circumambulate; there are teens who come here to meet their friends; there are kids who enjoy playing there; and there are some shoppers too who come there for some rest too. And lately, the setting up of open gym inside this facility has added more to this place. Worth a visit, for sure.

A nice peaceful devine place

Very small peaceful park with an amazing Buddhist Temple located centrally. It was very peaceful and calming but also very relaxing for prayers. The structures inside the temple were also delicately crafted.

It's a gorgeous Buddhist temple that you cannot miss. It looks good during the day, ans great at night. Needless to say, it's a must visit. It's very well maintained. They have two prayer wheels at the back. Camera is allowed, and I was able to take some memorable photos.

This place is very calm and peaceful to visit

It is a temple located in Bhutan next to India Bhutan border. It would be wrong to say only a temple, it is also a park. Due to the fact that India is located on the border of Bhutan, Indians also come here.We two friends went for a trip to Bhutan then came here.

Fantastic place to visit during evening....

A source of peace in a bustling phuentsholing town.

This place is so peaceful and I'm lucky to have my hotel in front of it. Most of the time it will be crowded because of tourists and another reason is that this place acts as an entry point for Indian tourists. Visas are not required, not even fees and you can visit this place by just showing aadhaar card (only for 24 hours).
