He built numerous iron bridges and temples across Bhutan and Tibet. The temple is privately run by the descendents of Thangtong Gyalpo. Lhakhang is located along Paro-Thimphu highway, just after Isuna village and before Chhuzom, on the base of a mountain across the Pa chu river. The temple conducts tshechu every year.
