The Spiritual Realm Beneath the Himalayas

Punakha, Bhutan, is home to a miraculous architectural wonder nestled among the peaks of this mountainous kingdom—the Dzong. The star of this exploration is the Punakha Dzong, Bhutan's most iconic fortress. With a history spanning over 300 years, this ancient structure serves as a hub of both administrative and religious activities, earning it the title of 'Bhutan's Most Beautiful Dzong.' Strolling through on a misty morning, one is captivated by the close-up views of the fortress, the delicate flowers in its courtyard, and the misty mountains in the distance, all blending into a mesmerizing tapestry of culture and nature.
