About Buddha Dordenma statue

The Buddha Dordenma Statue is located in Thimphu, the capital city of Bhutan. It is situated atop a hill overlooking the Thimphu Valley. The Buddha Dordenma Statue is a massive statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, and it stands at a height of 169 feet (51.5 meters). The statue is made of bronze and gilded in gold. The statue is considered a symbol of peace and happiness. Its construction was initiated to commemorate the centennial of the Bhutanese monarchy and to fulfill a prophecy of a large statue that would emanate an aura of peace and happiness to the entire world. The Buddha is seated on a large lotus throne, symbolizing purity and enlightenment. The throne itself is a three-tiered structure. The site also includes an observation deck that offers panoramic views of the Thimphu Valley. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking vistas of the surrounding mountains and landscape. The construction of the Buddha Dordenma Statue is part of the Dordenma Project, which includes a complex with meditation halls and a park.
