Trongsa Dzong
Bhutan Trongsa Dzong,
The Tronsa Dzong literally means the Dzong on the tip of a Dungkhar (conch, of the never0changing country of Druk and the everlasting Dharma. Trongsa Dzong is situated overlooking the Mangdechhu River.
Tronsa Dzong was founded by Yingzin Ngagi Wangchuk, a descendant of Ngawang Chogyal and a revered follower of Kuenkhen Pema Karpo. In 1541, he meditated at the village of Yueli in Trongsa, a few kilometers from the present Dzong. During the meditation, he saw lighted buter lamp below the ridge at the present Goenkhang, which houses the guardian deities Palden Lhamo (Mahakali) and Yeshey Goenpo ( Mahakali). Considering the place to be sacred, he built mediation quarters. Once during his meditation in the new quarter, the deity Pelden Lhamo appeared and prophesied that this place would play an important role in spreading the teachings of Buddha. After this incident, Yingzin Ngagi Wangchuk constructed a small temple and named it Mondrupley. Over the years, his decuples built many smaller meditation centers near the Mondrupley temple, which soon began to resemble a small village. The people of Yueli names this new village Trong-sar (new village).
