Punakha Suspension Bridge — photo spot in HVQ9+HXR, Punakha, Bhutan
Punakha Suspension Bridge
Photograph the colorful wooden suspension bridge (with fluttering prayer flags) spanning the fast Mo Chhu river, framed against Punakha Dzong on nearby ridges and terraced rice fields. Best light is early morning or late afternoon for warm side-light and reflections; winter (Feb–Mar) offers clearer skies and snow-capped ridges. Easy 10–20 min walk from parking; no formal entry fee but dress respectfully near dzong and monks. Weekdays are quieter; carry polariser for river glare.
