Punakha Dzong

We heard that in certain parts of Bhutan, Sunday's a no car day (except for tourist buses) and the community also goes out to clean up their neighborhoods sometimes - schools have clean ups, offices have clean ups, everyone works together to keep the town clean. I think that's great

We visited Punakha Dzong - a fortress. It's really beautiful, can you imagine how much nicer the photos below would have looked if i'd have been a better photographer n the weather'd been nicer?




Apparently bees like to take up residence above the windows

I'm guessing the windows don't get opened much




The buildings are really majestic and everywhere u look it's just wow wow & wow



View from the Dzong


We then took a walk, this is how the Dzong looks like from the outside, another angle

 This is the longest suspension bridge in Bhutan

Poh Chhu river



The walk isn't so scary because it's not so high up so even if u get vertigo i recommend going for it. Things do look different from the other side, hahaha...
