Terrace farming in the Wangdue Phodrang valley, Bhutan.
New constructions next to the Puna Tsang Chu River. See a happy group of cows grazing near huge mounds of hay. If the Bhutanese happiness index is anything to go by, these are the happiest cows on earth, what with a mountain of hay on three sides, clean air and water and no worries!
New constructions (some five storeys tall!) next to Puna Tsang Chu river in Bhutan. There is considerable construction activity here as a large dam workers' housing colony has come up opposite the town, upstream of a major dam that is in the works. Large trucks are ferrying construction material down from Dochula, dustying up the once beautiful road!
The Sankosh river (also Gadadhar and Svarnakosha) is commonly known in Bhutan as the Puna Tsang Chu river because of the confluences of the many tributaries near the town, Wangdue Phodrang. It's two largest tributaries are the Mo Chhu and the Pho Chhu. These tributaries flow together at Punakha, which is another village in Bhutan.
The Sankosh or the Mo Chhu / Punatsangchhu rises in Northern Bhutan and empties itself into the Brahmaputra in Assam, India.
