Venturing to the breathtaking Paro Taktsang, also known as the Tiger’s Nest Monastery in Bhutan? Your journey starts with a flight to Paro International Airport, the only international airport in Bhutan and the closest to this sacred site. Nestled in the Paro Valley, the airport is just a short drive away from the town of Paro, where you can find a range of accommodations, from traditional Bhutanese guesthouses to luxurious hotels.
Paro serves as the perfect base for your hike to Paro Taktsang, perched on a cliffside and offering stunning views of the valley. The town itself, steeped in history and dotted with ancient temples and fortresses, provides a serene and culturally rich backdrop to your visit. As you trek up to the monastery, the journey through pine forests and past prayer flags becomes a spiritual experience, leading to one of Bhutan’s most revered and picturesque landmarks.
