Paro Taktsang – Tiger’s Nest Monastery

Perched dramatically on a cliffside 3,000 meters above the Paro Valley, Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang) is the most iconic landmark in Bhutan. Legend says Guru Rinpoche flew here on the back of a tigress to meditate, making it one of the holiest Buddhist sites in the country. Visitors trek up winding forest trails with prayer flags fluttering in the wind, passing waterfalls and viewpoints. The monastery itself, with its white walls and golden roofs clinging to the cliffs, offers breathtaking views of the valley below. Inside, peaceful shrines and meditation caves tell stories of Bhutan’s spiritual past. Visiting Tiger’s Nest is more than just sightseeing—it’s a journey of devotion, endurance, and awe. It’s often said that a trip to Bhutan is incomplete without standing at this sacred site#TigersNestBhutan #SacredJourney #BhutanWonder
