Travel guidebooks have made this image the symbol of Bhutan.

One of the most holy sites in Bhutan, the Guru Rinpoche (see the photo of the thondrol in the Paro Festival series) is said to have flown here on the back of a tigeress and then meditated in a cave, contained within the present structure, for three months.
