* Jangchubling Dzong – first day of Eastern Bhutan with lord Buddha Relic.
* Perched on a hillock in Gangzur Geog in Kurtoe, the Jangchubling Lhakhang was built in the 18th century by Pekar Jamtsho.
* Lhuentse Dzong contains five temples, three of which are in the central tower and are dedicated to Guru Rinpoche. The dzong also contains a Gonkhang, which is dedicated to Mahakala, and a temple dedicated to other deities. The ground floor also has a temple dedicated to Avalokitesvara. The Kunre, the assembly hall for the monks, is located on the upper floor. Presently, there are around 100 monks residing there.
* Mongar Dzong was established in 1930 to replace the original Shongar Dzong, although the original utse (central tower) dates from an earlier age. It’s unusual because it has two entrances. There are four lhakhangs in the utse, including a goenkhang (chapel dedicated to protective deities) and the Sangay Lhakhang.
