What you'll do

Bhutan’s longest suspension bridge of its kind Stretching across the majestic Pho Chu river, the Punakha suspension bridge is 180 m (590 ft) in length, making it one of the longest suspension bridges in the country. Strongly strengthened with iron chains and metal netting, this extraordinary bridge adorned in fluttering prayer flags, connects Punakha Dzong to the surrounding villages, and offers a great view of the glistening stream below. The Khamsum Yuelley Namgyal Chorten is located approximately 20-minutes from the bridge.
