The gateway to the kingdom of the Himalayas, Paro is home to ethereal alpine forests, ancient monasteries and over 150 ornate temples. Owing its stardom to the awe-inspiring Tiger’s Nest Monastery, decorated with prayer flags and built into the granite rocks hundreds of metres above the ground, the entire valley is a photographer’s dream. Paro Valley’s forested slopes are ideal for hiking enthusiasts and encircle the charming town; the perfect base for discovering the mythical valley and its fortresses, stunning Bhutanese architecture and traditional cantilevered bridges.
Paro’s historical and cultural encounters are spectacularly rewarding with expert guidance. Combatting language barriers and distinct cultural differences are the key to success when holidaying through Bhutan, which is why each of our itineraries include bespoke guided tours, private transfers, restaurant reservations and in-depth recommendations.
