This cave above Senge Dzong (seng ge rdzong) is the retreat cave or Drubphug (sgrub phug) of Khandro Yeshe Tsogyal, where she attained enlightenment.

Before Guru Padmasambhava and Yeshe Tsogyal practiced 3 years in a lower cave accomplishing Vajrakilaya. Then the Guru gave the Long Life Empowerment of Guru Amitayus Yabyum in the Lion's Fortress (seng ge rdzong) in Eastern Vhutan and in Lion's Cave(seng ge phug) near the famous Tiger's Nest or Taktsang in Western Bhutan.
