Polish Constitution Day in Bhutan 🇵🇱🇧🇹
This year, the celebration of the 3rd of May - marking Poland’s 1791 Constitution, the first written constitution in Europe - took on a truly special setting: Thimphu.
The occasion was celebrated through music, with a concert by Polish vocalist Michał Rudaś, who brought together Polish and Bhutanese songs. Hosted by the Honorary Consul of the Republic of Poland in Bhutan, Mr. Wangdi Jamyang, in cooperation with the Polish Institute New Delhi, the event gathered distinguished guests, including Minister for Foreign Affairs and External Trade of the Kingdom of Bhutan, Mr. Lyonpo D.N. Dhungyel, alongside other officials and members of the diplomatic corps.
Opening the evening, HoM Dr. Piotr Antoni Świtalski reflected on Poland’s long democratic tradition, its history, and the role of the constitution in building the identity of the nation.
Michał Rudaś then took the stage, stunning the audience with his performance of Bhutanese songs in Dzongkha - a gesture warmly received as a beautiful reflection of 🇵🇱🇧🇹 ties.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this evening possible, and to everyone who joined us to celebrate!
