Paro travel tips


Kichu Resort Complex 
Paro, is the gateway to te Kingdom of Bhutan's treasures. The hotel is a 15 minutes drives from the airport of Paro. Here I encountered the essence of the Bhutanese Hospitality! The hotel is very comfy with a huge bar and restaurant. It is situated next to a river where can find peace and tranquility. Rooms are spreat out in little bungalows. Rooms are 1800INR for a single and 2400 for a double (1$ is 45INR) plus a 13% tax. more

Tatksang Monastery 
This is the most impacting monastery incrusted in a high mountain. It is called in Bhutanese Dzong Taksang (Dzong means monastery, and Taksang is “The Tiger Nest”). It is the most revered in the whole Bhutan because Padmasambhava, the 8th century Indian holy monk who introduced Buddhism in Tibet, stayed there during his hazardous journey accros the Himalaya. You will need at least 2 hours to get there from Paro (if you are a good trekker), plus 2 more to come back. It suffered a tragic sinister in 1998, when it was burnt down. more
