Coat of arms of Bhutan
This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "Coat_of_arms_of_Bhutan".

The Emblem of Bhutan maintains several elements of the flag of Bhutan, with slighly different artistry, and contains much Buddhist symbolism.

The official description is as follows:

"The national emblem, contained in a circle, is composed of a double diamond-thunderbolt (dorji) placed above a lotus, surmounted by a jewel and framed by two dragons. The thunderbolt represents the harmony between secular and religious power. The lotus symbolizes purity; the jewel expresses sovereign power; and the two dragons, male and female, stand for the name of the country which they proclaim with their great voice, the thunder."
