Meeting Monks on the Trail to Punakha's Iconic Suspension Bridge

As we made our way from the Punakha Dzong to the Punakha Suspension Bridge, we were treated to a picturesque hike through the Bhutanese countryside. The trail was a leisurely 1 to 2 kilometers long, winding path. As we approached the bridge, we came across a group of monks dressed in their distinctive red robes. Against the backdrop of the yellow flowers blooming in the trees, the scene made for a striking photograph. The Punakha Suspension Bridge itself is a marvel of engineering and a popular tourist attraction in Bhutan. Built in 2008, the bridge spans the Po Chu river and is one of the longest suspension bridges in the country, measuring approximately 160 meters in length – Punakha Dzong, Bhutan
