The unmistakable Taktsang, or ‘Tiger’s Nest’ monastery, perches dramatically on the cliff-side over the Paro Valley. A slow and steady hike to the summit is as magical as the 1,500-year-old monastery itself. Set off early along dew dusted forest paths, through clusters of fluttering prayer flags and past panoramic viewpoints for a chance to witness monks at morning prayer. The midway viewpoint at Tasktsand Goemba offers a pit stop for a refreshing cup of local chai.
