Bhutan, P27, B216a, 1 Ngultrum 2006

Omschrijving

With the exception of the 1,000-ngultrum denomination, these notes were designed by Giesecke & Devrient and initially printed by Thomas De La Rue. However, in 2013, the production of the 1- and 10-ngultrum notes switched to G&D, and the substrate for these denominations also changed from paper to Louisenthal’s Hybrid, a paper/polymer substrate. Simtokha Dzong ('dzong' means "castle-monastery") also known as Sangak Zabdhon Phodrang (Bhutanese language meaning: "Palace of the Profound Meaning of Secret Mantras") is a small dzong. It was built in 1629 by Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgval, who unified Bhutan. It is the first of its kind built in Bhutan. An important historical monument and former Buddhist monastery, today it houses one of the premier Dzongkha language learning institutes. It recently underwent renovation.
