Paro Taktsang, also known as the Tiger’s Nest Monastery, is one of Bhutan’s most iconic and sacred sites. Perched dramatically on a cliffside 3,000 feet above the Paro Valley, it was built in 1692 around a cave where Guru Padmasambhava is believed to have meditated in the 8th century. According to legend, he flew to the site on the back of a tigress, hence the name. The monastery complex consists of beautiful temples and shrines, accessible by a challenging hike through pine forests. Paro Taktsang is a symbol of Bhutan’s spiritual heritage and offers breathtaking views and deep cultural significance.
