What It’s Like To Visit Taktsang Monastery (Tiger’s Nest)

My favorite day in Bhutan was the day I got up close and personal with Tiger’s Nest Monastery or Taktsang Monastery. Up until this day, I had only seen Tiger’s Nest in random photos, and the first time I saw a photo, I wasn’t even sure this place existed! It is a beautiful monastery perched precariously on the side of a mountain; it looks like it was built into the mountain itself!

Bhutan Lhayul Tours & Travels saved the visit to the Tiger’s Nest for the last day since it gives us tourists time to acclimate to the altitude in Bhutan. It also works out nicely since Tiger’s Nest is located in Paro, the city where Bhutan’s international airport is located. In fact, you can actually catch glimpses of Tiger’s Nest from the city. It is so high up, it looks like white dots from the ground!...
