Climb to the Tigers Nest

There is one building that is undoubtedly the most famous and most photographed structure in Bhutan. Precariously perched high above the valley on the outskirts of Paro, this amazing building is approximately 900 metres higher than the valley floor. If you want to visit the Tiger's Nest, there is no alternative other than to climb the very steep and rocky path from the car park at the base of the cliff. I can tell you now that it is hard work to reach the top, but the effort is surely worth it.

After our final full day in Bhutan, we were treated to a cultural show back at our hotel in the evening. The Bhutanese are fiercely proud of their country, and rightly so. We adored our time there and were very impressed at the intelligence and dignity of the people.Leggi altro
