This year, the Thai Royal Project, and Citizens of Miharu, Japan, are also participants at the exhibition.
The Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition was initiated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forests, upon the Royal Command of His Majesty The King, as a community event for people to come together, with an objective to foster appreciation for beautiful spaces and encourage horticulture and floriculture based economy. The first Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition was held at Paro Ugyen Pelri Palace grounds last year in April.
The 2nd Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition was supposed to conclude on 8th June but given its popularity it was extended by two days till 10th June. Her Majesty Gyalyum Tshering Yangdon Wangchuck is the Royal Patron for the Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition.
