Wangdue Phodrang Sunday Market
A lively Sunday produce market in Wangdue Phodrang, about 30 minutes' drive from Punakha.
Wangdue Phodrang hosts one of Bhutan's major weekend markets, held on Sundays, about a 30-minute drive from Punakha. Locals trade fresh produce such as fruit, vegetables, beans and chillies, and the market gives a look at everyday Bhutanese life. It makes an easy add-on to a Punakha Dzong visit.
