Rinchengang Village
Rinchengang (also Drinchengang) is a historic village in Thedtsho Gewog, Wangdue Phodrang District, Bhutan, situated on a hillock opposite Wangdue Phodrang Dzong. Believed to be one of the oldest villages in the country, it was established in the early 17th century by stonemasons recruited from Cooch Bihar in India by Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal to build dzongs and temples across Bhutan. The village is renowned for its traditional stonework and clustered adobe architecture, and has been designated as the site of Bhutan's first Innovative Model Village under a Royal Initiative.
