On Day 13 of our Bhutan travel and food trip, we drove from Thimphu to Punakha.

Dochula Pass - On the drive from Thimphu to Punakha, you’ll pass through Dochula Pass, a beautiful mountain pass. Although it was foggy, there were still great views and it had an almost eerie feel to it.

Punakha Dzong - A Dzong is the center of government, administration, and religion in every district of Bhutan, and one of the most famous places to visit in Punakha is the local Dzong. Unfortunately they don’t allow any video inside the dzong, but the views from outside were still spectacular.

Punakha Suspension Bridge - This bridge was a little scary to cross, but the beauty was amazing.

Yak Herder’s Camp - Food and Lodging - For lunch we stopped at Yak Herder’s camp, there weren’t too many food options in this area of Bhutan. The food was alright, we mostly ate Indian food. Total price - 655 BTN ($9.83) for 3

Aum Leki Wangmo Farmhouse - For the night we checked into Aum Leki Wangmo Farmhouse a secluded home stay high up in the mountains. It was dark when we arrived, but it was beautiful. We had a home cooked Bhutanese food meal for dinner.
