I knew the king would marry one day he is too handsome to be single forever and he pick a pretty woman to be his queen.He is nice a guy from what I see they are hard to find now in days.

The King and Queen of Bhutan are on a week-long State Visit to India.
The King will be the Chief Guest at India's Republic Day Parade on 26th Jan 2013.
Nicolas Sarkozy was the Chief Guest at R-Day parade last year.

Seems like Bhutan King always on State Visit to India and vice versa.

Ha Ha..He visited India soon after his wedding, and this time to be the Chief Guest at R-Day Parade. But I dont think there were any State Visits from India recently. India's then President Pratibha Patil visited Bhutan to attend the present King's coronation.
Anyway India has always been Bhutan's closest and for almost 5 decades, only ally. They even allowed Indian army to move through their territory during 1962 Indo-China War.
Despite China's constant wooing, Bhutan remains friendly and loyal to India..

This is the video of the King of Bhutan as Chief Guest at India's Republic Day Parade on 26th Jan 2013.
On Republic Day eve, PM welcomes Bhutan King Jigme Wangchuk as chief guest - YouTube
Go directly to 5:00 for the arrival of Queen of Bhutan, and welcomed by the Prime Minister.
Then at 7:30, the King with the President of India arrive.

I also attached a clip of highlights of R-Day parade for all to have an idea what happens at that parade. Its not just showing off the military might, but also the enormous cultural diversity of India.

Can anyone tell who is who in this photo?
I recognize only the King and the Queen.
Jigme Dorji is the first King's brother to marry, isn't he? If it comes for King's sisters all but the youngest are already married.

 

[Tarlita]

Thanks for the photo Warren, I couldn't get the other two links to open. Nice and colourful.

I don't know them all but there's the Dragon King and the Dragon Queen, the Queens Dowager, a princess that I can't remember the name of, and Prince Jigyel who is the Heir Presumptive.

 

[Fürstin Taxis]

I tried it, I´m not soo sure about the Queens, they re so similar lol


1 Princess Ashi Kesang Choden Wangchuck
2 Princess Ashi Sonam Dechan Wangchuck
3 Prince Dasho Jigme Dorji
4 Princess Ashi Chimi Yangzom Wangchuck
5 Princess Ashi Dechen Yangzom Wangchuck
6 Queen Ashi Sangay Choden Wangchuck
7 Queen Ashi Tshering Pem Wangchuck
8 Queen Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuck
9 Queen Ashi Tshering Yangdon

I thought that number 3 was Prince Jigyel Ugyen, the son of Queen Dorji Wangmo Wangchuck. I could be wrong though.

 

[Fürstin Taxis]

They should set up an official website of the monarchy and make a "who is who"

I think you are right, it´s Prince Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuck.

[CamillaForQueen]

Definitely, I think it would make it much easier! I don't know most of the Bhutanese royals, I only knew Prince Jigyel because he is the heir at the moment.

 

[Fürstin Taxis]

It might be answered somewhere, but if the King and Queen have a daughter, she will be the heir as long there is no brother?
