Day
Paro sight-seeing and Taktshang Monastery Hiking.
After an early breakfast, we will hike to popular Taktshang Monastery (Tiger's Nest Monastery), century old cultural icon of Bhutan.
Taktshang Monastery (Tiger’s nest) is Bhutan’s most recognizable cultural icon perched 800m/2640ft up a seemingly sheer cliff. Although it was tragically and mysteriously consumed by fire in April 1998 it has now been restored to its former glory. It is believed that in the 8th century, the great tantric master Guru Rimopche/ Padmasambhava (2nd Buddha) flew on the back of a tigress to the site where the monastery now stands. (Five hours hike to and from, some gentle and some steep hike, some stony foot path and some good ones) If you ride a horse upward it will cost extra US$20 per person. After back from Taktshang Monastery you will have sightseeing of Paro Dzong and Local sightseeing of Paro market.
It is optional as tour can be done as per your requirement instead of hiking. In the Farmhouse we indulge in eating, taking bath and staying for a night at a local farmhouse gives a different variation, and a chance to see the inside of such a home, rather than just the brightly decorated exteriors. If you take hot stone bath and eat in the farm house it will cost extra US$25 per person. Later in the evening, we stroll around the beautiful streets of Paro.
