Behind the Punakha Dzong stretches the Punakha Suspension Bridge, the second longest of its kind in Bhutan. Connecting the Punakha Dzong with the Punakha town, the suspension bridge spans over 350 meters and dangles above the meandering Pho Chhu river. The view of the emerald blue river cascading down the mountainous valley dotted with lush forests while crossing the bridge has made it a favored tourist destination as it offers stupendous views of a river, a valley, a Temple and a good boost of adrenaline as well!
