hills
and
overlooking
the
glistening
waters
of
the
Punakha
River,
Como

Resort
effortlessly

of
the

is
inspired
by
traditional
Bhutanese
design,
with
intricate
woodwork
and
ornate

that
add
to
its
charm.
The
rooms
at

and
elegantly
designed,
offering
panoramic
views
of

Valley.
I
stayed
in
one
of
their
Deluxe
Valley
View
rooms,
and
waking
up
to
the
sight
of
mist-covered
mountains
and
the
sound
of

river
flowing
was
a
truly
magical
experience.
The

Bhutanese
healing
techniques
with
modern

practices.
It
was
a
soothing

left
me
feeling
completely
relaxed
and
rejuvenated.
Exploring
the
Punakha
Valley
was
made
easy
with
the
resort's
guided
excursions.
I
took
a
leisurely
walk
to
the
nearby
Punakha
Dzong,
an
architectural
masterpiece
that
sits
at
the
confluence
of
two
rivers.
The
resort
also
arranged
a
visit
to
the
Chimi
Lhakhang
Temple,
known
for
its
unique
fertility
blessings
–
a
cultural
experience
I
won't
forget.
In
