Phil's All Embracing Bhutan Slide Show
Scenes from West Bengal, India



Our first destination in West Bengal was a temple dedicated to Kalu Rinpoche, who was Lama Palden's root teacher.


We were allowed to take photographs inside the temple, in contrast to the temples in Bhutan. Here is a larger than life statue of Buddha, Palden is on the right.

The clay statue of Buddha at Tiger's Nest will be painted ornately in similar fashion to this statue.
