The Legend Of Punakha.


Punakha Dzong in Western Bhutan which sites on the confluence of two rivers seems to rise out of the water like a ghostly galleon.The trees trees that line the fringe of the imposing white and brick coloured structure crowned with glided pagoda roofs are covered with the bloom of purple flowers giving it a surreal air.Indeed the history of the winter capital of the little Himalayan Kingdom,Punakha and its Dzong is woven in the legends and folklore of the country.

Punakha is 77 kms or 3 hrs.drive across the twisting mountain roads,from the Capital city,Thimphu. To travel to Punakha all foreign nationals need special permit.
