Situated on the river banks of Mo Chhu and Pa Chhu, Paro is a scenically blessed town of Bhutan with many historically significant sites. After checking into your hotel, freshen up, and gear up for your sightseeing. Taktsang Monastery is the most prominent attraction of Paro. It is a monastery built on the cliff. It takes a two-hour trek to reach Taktsang Monastery. You can either trek or ride on a pony. From Taktsang Monastery you will get the most outstanding view of Paro valley. Next, we will take you to the National Museum of Bhutan which is located in the Conch-shaped building of Ta Dzong. Here, you can observe artefacts dating back to the 2nd century and get an insight into the early Bhutanese era.
After lunch, pay a visit to Paro Dzong. Known as the Fortress on a Heap of Jewel, Paro Dzong is listed under the tentative sites of UNESCO. You can only walk in the courtyard of the Dzong since the main sanctum housing the Thondrol of Guru Rinpoche only opens during the annual Tsechu. After admiring the beauty of the purple jacaranda trees and the shimmering water of Po Chhu and Mo Chhu return to your hotel. Overnight stay at Paro.
