Bhutanese Pazaps
I took this picture when I went to Phobjikha for the shooting a MV titled 'Euyi Patra'. Pazaps means "the brave warriors of Punakha" in Sanskrit. They were the chosen men of war, courageous in battle. They were troops in Zhabdrung's army, dressed in red and black. During the annual Punakha Domchoe, the war scenario is re-enacted using firecrackers.. With the help of this image we can teach our students regarding how our Bhutanese army commonly known as Pazaps looks like and the battle that took place during the time of zhabdrung.
