Participants at the tsechu in Wangdue Phodrang getting ready for a performance. Wangdue Phodrang is a town and capital of Wangdue Phodrang District in central Bhutan. The town shares its name with the dzong, built in 1638 which dominates the district. The name is said to have been given by Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal who was searching for the best location for a dzong to prevent incursions from the south. At the chosen spot the Shabdrung encountered a boy named Wangdi playing beside the river and hence named the dzong "Wangdi's Palace".
