The drive through the countryside affords a glimpse of everyday life in this most remote of Himalayan Kingdom.

      Punakha was the ancient capital of Bhutan. On arrival, visit Punakha Dzong, the โ€œPalace of Great Happinessโ€ built in 1637 by the Shabdrung, the โ€˜Unifier of Bhutanโ€™.

      After lunch, enjoy a walk to Chimi Lhakhang, temple of the Drukpa Kuenly who is also known as the Divine Madman. He inherited the Divine Madman title since he revolted against the orthodox Buddhism in his time.
