Changlimithang Stadium
Chang Lam, Thimphu, BhutanAbout
The national stadium occupies the site of the 1885 battle that helped establish the political supremacy of Ugyen Wangchuck, Bhutan's first king. You might catch the occasional football match here, but the next-door archery ground is much more fun. It's worth checking to see if there's an archery tournament going on: whether it's traditional bamboo or high-tech carbon-fibre bows, the skill, camaraderie and good-humoured ribbing are always entertaining. Traditional songs and victory dances are all part of the fun. Archers often practise here in the mornings.
