Rakta lhakhang is a privately owned lhakhang. According to the owner Pema (2021), it was built by carpenter Nima Rinzin in 1754 for the well-being of the communities and to protect them from evil. It was later renovated and extended by his son Tawpo in 1917 after it was depilated. The lhakhang was badly hit by an earthquake damaging the structure and statues. In 2018, the statues were renovated through collective funds by the government and private. Currently, the lhakhang is in dire need of renovation.
