Visit Tiger Nest Monastery Bhutan

Tiger’s Nest Monastery


Paro Taktsang or as it’s more commonly known Tiger’s, Nest is a 328-year-old Buddhist monastery that sits precariously on a soaring cliff face 3120 meters above sea level, in the heart of the fascinating kingdom of Bhutan.
A hugely sacred and important site, the monastery was constructed in the location where Padmasambhava, also known as Guru Rinpoche (who is credited with introducing Buddhism to Bhutan and as the legend goes, was brought on the back of a tigress) first meditated and is a truly breathtaking sight, a cliffside complex of beautiful temples and caves surrounded by the verdant slopes of the Himalayas!
