Bhutan too shares a war memorial

On this Veteran's Day, it seems only fitting to offer a picture from the Druk Wangyal Lhakhang, a memorial to the Bhutanese army's victory over an incursion by Indian insurgents in 2003. One hundred and eight chortens sit atop Dochula Pass at about 10000 feet. The surroundings dwarf the human edifices.
