4 Days- Private Bhutan Tour with Tiger Nest

Welcome to Paro Bhutan, where mist-covered mountains meet vibrant cultural heritage, and every step leads to a deeper connection with nature and your inner self. Your guide and driver await at the arrival with a white scarf of auspiciousness and escort you to your hotel.

Traverse the traditional wooden cantilever bridge to reach Paro Rinpung Dzong or the fortress on Heap of Jewels and explore the astonishing architecture and paintings .

Dumtseg Lhakhang lies just out of Paro town, with the backdrop of a majestic hill. It is possibly the only ancient temple built in the shape of a chorten and is literally chained down since local belief holds that it will otherwise fly off to heaven! Dumtseg Lhakhang was constructed in 1412 by Thangtong Gyelpo who came to Bhutan in search of iron ore to be used for constructing bridges in his homeland Tibet. The paintings here are possibly the most extraordinary collection in all of Bhutan. The Dumtseg lhakhang was conceived as a mandala with the three different levels of initiation.

Take a 15 minutes walk to Dzongdrakha : visually splendid but little visited Cliffside retreat. While at here, don't forget to visit the cave where Drubthog Gyonpo Dorji , the founder of the Lhakhang has meditated. It has a spiritually healing ambience. The place is also not so touristy so you can enjoy the serenity and tranquility at utmost on your own.
