How to deal with an evil ogress. Build a temple.
[
koshkha
, 30/12/2008] Kyichu Lhakhang - or Kyichu Temple - is one of the most significant temples in the Paro area and can be found about 4 km outside the town. Legend says that Bhutan and much of the Himalaya range had been besieged by a giant ogress who was lying across the area to prevent the spread of Buddhism. In the 7th Century the Tibetan king gave orders to his people to build temples at key points on the ogress's body to sap her evil powers and Kyichu was believed to be the location of her left foot.
