Thimphu is the capital and largest city of Bhutan. It is situated in the western central part of Bhutan and the surrounding valley is one of Bhutan's dzongkhags, the Thimphu District. The city became the capital of Bhutan in 1961. It has a population of 91,000, as of 2011.

The city is spread out laterally in a north-south direction on the west bank of the valley formed by the Raidāk River, which is known as the Wang Chuu or Thimphu Chuu in Bhutan. Thimphu is spread over an altitudinal range between 2,248 meters (7,375 feet) and 2,648 meters (8,688 feet). Unusual for a capital city, Thimphu is not served by an airport, but relies on the Paro Airport connected by road some 54 kilometers (34 miles) away.
