I just recieved a purchase of a banknote showing a peacock from India. I also recieved another banknote with a peacock theme...with a twist. What is the twist and where is it from?

Verweis : "ngdawa" Does Bhutan have any peacocks? I didn't know.Why don't you know? It is common from 640 B.C, that Bhutanese regional kings ordered coins to be minted in any symbol of Buddhism. Now banknotes, Banknotes too have symbols of Buddhism and peacock is one.

That was the twist. A person dressed up as a peacock. I had that note for years. And only just noticed recently the peacock costume. And actually because of the cultural crossroads, this could be the 봉 황 or the peacock! Awesome!
