EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of Bhutan's rich cultural heritage, showcasing the majestic Tsong (old castle) of Punakha. Standing proudly against a backdrop of lush greenery, this architectural marvel exudes an aura of mystery and tranquility. The entrance to the Tsong beckons visitors with its grandeur and intricate design. As two figures clad in vibrant robes walk towards it, one can't help but be drawn into their journey through time. The red hues symbolize Buddhism, which holds a significant place in Bhutanese culture. From both front and rear views, the Tsong reveals its ancient beauty and sturdy fortifications that have stood the test of time. Its imposing presence evokes a sense of awe-inspiring reverence for those who witness it firsthand. A Buddhist monk gracefully ascends the steps leading up to this sacred site while a woman gazes upon its magnificence from afar. Their presence adds depth to this scene, reminding us that religion and spirituality are deeply intertwined with Bhutanese life. The architecture itself is a testament to Bhutan's unique style, blending traditional elements seamlessly with nature. This harmonious integration creates an enchanting visual spectacle that leaves onlookers captivated by its sheer splendor. Michael Runkel/Robert Harding has masterfully captured this extraordinary moment in his photography, allowing viewers to embark on their own virtual journey through time and space
