It is bounded by the Chubachu River to the north, the Wang Chu River to the east and Changangkha and Motithang to the west.[1] The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) has its Bhutanese headquarters here; it has been responsible for facilitating tiger conservation in Bhutan.[2] A weekend market is held on the western bank of the Wang Chu. To the west lies the Norzin Lam road which divides Chubachu from Motithang.
