These kids are in a different world at the village festival in Ura valley

These kids are in a different world While everyone else is engrossed in the folk dances and other festivities at this village festival in Ura valley, these kids are engrossed in a different world altogether. (Ura valley, Bhutan , 2015)

Grandeur of Punakha

Grandeur of Punakha The first impression at  Punakha Dzong   is that of the grandeur  and the sheer scale of everything here.  What sinks in is the relative insignificance of the humans due to the size, scale and proportion of the structures around. Second oldest and second largest  dzong  in  Bhutan , it was earlier the winter capital of Bhutan, now the winter capital only of monastic body.  (Punakha, Bhutan, 2015)
