Mongar Dzong was built in the 1930s and is one of Bhutan’s newest Dzongs. Nonetheless, it was constructed in the same way as all earlier dzongs, without plans or nails. Unlike the earlier Dzongs that are located in strategic positions, Mongar Dzong is located on a small gently sloping area just above the town. A visit to Mongar Dzong demonstrates how traditional Bhutanese architecture has continued to thrive through the centuries.
