Eye-catching scene from my recent tour

Direct translation - Jamkhar : name of the village , Thuu :  lower part of the female reproductive tract in local dialect. This structure is considered as a sacred place (shrine) and its located facing Jamkhar village on the way to Trashiyangtse. Its  legend is associated with the practice of night hunting  at Jamkhar village and  says that whenever this hole is watery, its confirmed that one's night hunting will be successful. 
Single flag pole with five straight  leading shoot that serves the purpose of hoisting five different color flags which are considered as auspicious in Buddhism ( Tangma chu village, Lhuentse)



Stone that resembles like a giant frog. Except  artificial painting, rest of the structure is natural. (Above Sheree chu, Mongar)
