Kuendeyling Bazaam, a cantilevered wooden footbridge festooned with prayer flags.
Thimphu.
Traditionally, prayer flags are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom.
The flags do not carry prayers to gods, which is a common misconception; rather,
the Tibetans believe the prayers and mantras will be blown by the wind
to spread the good will and compassion into all pervading space.
Therefore, prayer flags are thought to bring benefit to all.
