Amazing Himalayan Views
The last kingdom of the Himalayas showcases its brilliant landscapes on this tour. Most of the northern region is covered by the Himalayan peaks which are followed by low foothills and valleys. The vegetation ranges from subtropical to alpine and it becomes a barren rocky land as you move upward. The combination of snow-capped mountains, forests, valleys, rivers and waterfalls is spectacular.
As the flight approaches Paro, you will get a glimpse of mountains, including Mt. Everest. The trek to the Tiger’s Nest Monastery is an amazing opportunity to enjoy these landscapes closely. There is another viewpoint known as Kuenselcholing Viewpoint which is also perfect to observe the landscapes surrounding Thimphu.
Tashichho Dzong and Memorial Chorten
Dzong is the unique and beautiful architecture found in Bhutan. Initially built as fortresses, these dzongs now serve as administrative, monastic and educational centres. Tashichho Dzong is the administrative centre of the Thimphu district where the throne room and office of the king lie. Tshechu festival is celebrated in each major dzong of the district but Tashichho Dzong holds the biggest Tshechu festival. Similar to other dzongs, this dzong is also full of art and crafts related to Tibetan Buddhism and images of Druk Gyalpo of Bhutan.
Memorial Chorten was built to respect the third King of Bhutan, King Jigme Dorji Wangchuck. This stupa is full of large images of tantric Buddhist deities and several artefacts of Tibetan Buddhism. The third king wanted to build something depicting the mind of Buddha.
Tiger’s Nest Monastery
Paro Taktsang, also known as Tiger’s Nest Monastery, lies at a height of 3120 meters and sits on a sheer cliff. This place has a precious view of Paro Valley and the surrounding area. The monastery is full of art and artefacts related to Tibetan Buddhism Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava. There are three main temples here, including the exact cave where Guru Rinpoche meditated. It takes about five hours to reach on foot, but it is well worth it. Though located in a bizarre place, it is often considered Bhutan’s major attraction.
Bhutanese Art and Craft
Throughout the 3 Nights 4 Days Bhutan Tour, you will be able to witness and appreciate the unique art and craft of Bhutan. Besides dzongs, monasteries and temples, you will get to see these works of art in places like the National Museum in Paro, Art and Craft School and the Handicrafts Emporium in Thimphu. Things like mandalas, thangka paintings, statues, handicrafts and various cultural and historical artefacts can be found in each of these places. You can also buy some handicrafts and exotic art pieces at Centenary Farmers Market. The major inspiration for Bhutanese art is Tibetan Buddhism philosophies, their deities, former and recent monarchs of Bhutan, and abstract art.
People and Culture
People in Bhutan practise their traditions in their day-to-day lives. Bhutan Tours are an amazing way to peek into their unique and isolated culture while also being a part of it.
