Amazing Things to Do in Punakha | Ultimate Guide 2025

Punakha is just incredible! Situated between stunning mountains in Bhutan, this destination is full of surprises. You simply have to visit the Punakha Dzong - this beautiful fortress where two rivers converge. The locals refer to it as the "palace of happiness," and believe me, it will make you happy as well!

Feel like some adventure? Go rafting on the Mo Chhu River - so much fun! The hike to Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten is worth it because of the jaw-dropping views.

The fertility temple is quite the conversation starter (you'll see why when you visit!), and walking across the big suspension bridge gives you butterflies, but in a good way.

The weather's nice year-round, but spring is extra special with all the flowers. Check out ourBhutan tour packages for the full experience of Punakha tourist attractions and other must-see places to visit in Bhutan!
