Situated in a deep valley along the banks of the Paro Chhu river, it is located 6 km away from Paro. The airport poses significant challenges due to the surrounding peaks, some reaching heights of 5,500 m (18,000 ft). Consequently, only eight pilots hold the certification to land at this airport.

Operations at Paro Airport are permitted solely during daylight hours, from sunrise to sunset, and under favorable visual meteorological conditions. Before 2011, Paro Airport stood as the sole airport in Bhutan. It can be accessed via the Paro-Thimphu road, located 6 km from Paro city and 54 km (34 mi; 29 nmi) from Thimphu.

Drukgyel Dzong, located in the upper part of Bhutan's Paro District, was once a fortress and Buddhist monastery. It is believed that the dzong was constructed in 1649 by Tenzin Drukdra under the orders of Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal, to commemorate their triumph over an invasion from Tibet.

During the early 1950s, a devastating fire nearly wiped out Drukgyel Dzong, leaving it in ruins.

In 2016, in honor of the birth of The Gyalsey and two other significant events—the arrival of Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal to Bhutan in 1616 AD and the birth year of Guru Rinpoche—Prime Minister Lyonchen Tshering Tobgay made an announcement. He declared that the Dzong would be reconstructed and restored to its former glory. The announcement was made and a groundbreaking ceremony took place on the day following the birth of the Prince.

And now, it is being reconstructed to it's former glory!

The Jowo Temple of Kyichu, one of Bhutan's oldest temples, was constructed in the 7th century by Tibetan Emperor Songtsen Gampo. It is among the 108 border taming temples built by him.

Padmasambhava visited the temple in the 8th century and is said to have hidden many spiritual treasures there. During the 12th century, the Lhapa Kagyu tradition took care of the temple, and in the 13th century, it was handed over to a descendant of Nyima, the son of Phajo Drugom Zhigpo. Pema Lingpa (1450-1521) rediscovered and restored the temple as described in Jigdral Yeshe Dorje's book on The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism.

Ngawang Namgyal took over the temple in 1644. It was restored and re-consecrated from 1836 to 1838 by the 25th Je Khenpo Sherab Gyaltshen. In 1971, Queen Kesang Choden Wangchuck built the Guru Temple adjacent to the old Jowo Temple, where annual rites for Vajrasattva, Palchen Heruka, and Vajrakilaya are held for the country's well-being. The courtyard of Kyichu Lhakhang is believed to have two orange trees that bear fruit all year. The temple was constructed to subdue the Demoness (Sin Mo).

Great Buddha Dordenma is a gigantic Shakyamuni Buddha statue in the mountains of Bhutan celebrating the 60th anniversary of fourth King Jigme Singye Wangchuck. The statue houses over one hundred thousand smaller Buddha statues, each of which, like the Great Buddha Dordenma itself, are made of bronze and gilded in gold. The Great Buddha Dordenma is sited amidst the ruins of Kuensel Phodrang, the palace of Sherab Wangchuk, the thirteenth Druk Desi, overlooking the southern approach to Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan.

Construction began in 2006 and was planned to finish in October 2010, however construction did not conclude until 25 September 2015. The completed work is one of the largest Buddha rupas in the world, at 169 feet (52 m) and contains 100,000 8-inch-tall and 25,000 12-inch-tall gilded bronze Buddhas.

The statue was constructed at a cost of US$47 million by Aerosun Corporation of Nanjing, China, which was sponsored by Rinchen Peter Teo a Singaporean businessman. The total cost of the entire project is well over US$100 million. The interior will accommodate respectively. Names of sponsors are displayed in the meditation hall which forms the throne of the Great Buddha Dordenma.

Apart from commemorating the centennial of the Bhutanese monarchy, it fulfills two prophecies. In the twentieth century, the yogi Sonam Zangpo prophesied that a large statue of either Padmasambhava, Buddha or of a phurba would be built in the region to bestow blessings, peace and happiness on the whole world. Additionally, the statue is mentioned in the ancient terma of Guru Rinpoche, a.k.a. Padmasambhava, himself, said to date from approximately the eighth century, and recovered some 600 years ago by terton Pema Lingpa.

Changangkha Lhakhang is a compact temple complex located on the tip of a ridge that juts towards central Thimphu from the hills to the east. Founded in the 13th or 14th centuries, it is probably the oldest surviving temple in Thimphu. The main components and foundations of the monastery are extremely old, long predating the unification of Bhutan in the 17th century by Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal. The temple is often frequented by parents with small children seeking to obtain blessings from the protective deity of the temple, Genyen Domtsangpa, who is considered to be the birth deity and protector of children born in JDWNRH national referral hospital in Thimphu.

The interior of the main temple is divided into two sections. The east side enshrining the principal sacred images, scriptures and other relics is not usually open to the general public - although the man image can be viewed from the other section, which is also where the lamas of the temple are seated while conducting rituals and prayers. Proper dress and decorum are required when visiting the temple.

Folk Heritage Museum also known as Phelchey Toenkhyim was established on July 28th, 2001 with the initiative of the Queen Mother of Bhutan, Her Majesty Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuck. It is dedicated to connecting people to the Bhutanese rural past through exhibits, demonstrations, educational programs and documentation of rural life. Her Majesty is also the founder and patron of the Museum.

Folk Heritage Museum is the oldest historical place in Bhutan. The Museum is more than 150 years old, and one can see that the rural setting and flavor has been well-preserved in addition to the paddy, wheat and millet fields that can be seen here. A traditional water-mill with mill stones, traditional style kitchen gardens with vegetables that were grown over the past 100 years and the famous traditional hot stone bath are also preserved. Native trees and plants that have domestic uses in Bhutanese rural households are being grown here in an effort to keep indigenous knowledge about the use of natural resources alive and to include a patch of greenery, right in the heart of the capital city of Thimphu.

The ground floor entrance to the farmhouse is accessible via a small, partially covered, stone courtyard used to store fire wood, farming equipment and grain. There is also an incense burner even today, for the daily burning of incense as an offering to the protective deities. The ground floor resembles a barn more than the entrance to a home as this is where farm animals are housed during the coldest periods of Bhutan’s harsh winters.

The next two levels of the house is accessible via steep, open-tread timber stairs in which visitors are advised to take caution while moving between floors. The second level of the farmhouse is used primarily as a safe store for grain and food. And on the third level, visitors will have reached the center of the family’s living and dining area. This is the only level of the homestead with heating, generated by a wood-fired stove set against an external wall in the separate kitchen area. Adjoining the kitchen is a living area and also where the entire, often large, family would have slept.

Visit to the Folk Heritage Museum is a unique experience because the principal exhibit of the museum itself is a restored three storied, traditional rammed mud and the timber house dating back to the mid 19th century. The form and the design of the house are that of a conventional; household in the Wang area of that era.

Motithang Takin Preserve is a wildlife reserve area for Takin, the national animal of Bhutan. Originally a mini-zoo, it was converted into a preserve when it was discovered that the animals refrained from inhabiting the surrounding forest even when set free. The reason for declaring Takin as a national animal of Bhutan on 25 November 2005 (Budorcas taxicolor) is attributed to a legend of the animal’s creation in Bhutan in the 15th century by Lama Drukpa Kunley.

The local mythology related to declaring takin as the national animal of Bhutan is dated to the 15th century. A Tibetan saint by the name Drukpa Kunley, popularly called by the epithet “The Divine Madman” is credited with creating the tamin with unique features. Drukpa Kunley, who was not only a religious preacher but also a proficient ta***ic, was requested by the people of Bhutan during one of his religious lectures to conjure a miracle before them. The saint agreed to do so provided he was fed for lunch, a whole cow and a whole goat. Once served, he devoured the food of both animals and left out the bones.

He then took out the head of the goat and fixed it to the skeleton of the cow and uttered mantras and the magic worked. With a snap, he created a live animal, which had the head of the goat and the body of the cow. The animal sprang up and moved on to the meadows to graze. The animal was then given the name d**g gyem tsey (takin). Since then this animal has been a common sight in the hills of Bhutan. Because of this magical creation with high religious connotation, the animal has been adopted as the national animal of Bhutan.

Tashichho Dzong: The fortress that houses the office of the King, Chief Abbot or Spiritual Leader of Buddhist Monasteries and some Ministers. Built in the 17th century. Visitors are open for an hour in the evening and closed during official meeting or gathering.

It has traditionally been the seat of the Druk Desi (or "Deb Raja"), the head of Bhutan's civil government, an office which has been combined with the Kingship since the creation of the monarchy in 1907, and summer capital of the country. In old British documents, it is known as Tassisudon.

It was built by the first Dharma Raja, who also founded the Lho-Drukpa sect of Buddhism, which has remained the distinctive sect of Bhutan. The correct transliteration of the vernacular name Bkrashis-chhos-rdzong, meaning "the fortress of auspicious doctrine" is, according to Graham Sandberg, Tashichhoidzong.

Once you land in Bhutan, you will be always mesmerized with our locally hand-crafted artifacts. Every tourist gets compelled and can’t hold back from buying a good numbers of souvenirs for their loved ones as they leave Bhutan. And some they take it as a memory of their visit to this heavenly county on Earth but some take it as a future return ticket back to Bhutan.

A tradition of arts & crafts has existed in Bhutan for centuries as many of these skills were needed to support the Buddhist culture and the creation of Dzongs, monasteries and temples. Artistic skills were also needed to paint and decorate not only the interiors of these important buildings, but also the homes (inside and out) of ordinary folk.

The Royal Government of Bhutan has a clear mission of promoting sustainability, inclusiveness, and resilience in the Bhutanese handicraft sector & supports local artisans by providing them with resources, training, and policy interventions to help improve their skills and increase their chances of success in both the local communities and the tourism industry.

If you would like to purchase handicrafts and textiles whilst in Bhutan then Thimphu or Paro are your best bet.

Paro also has a number of shops that sell Bhutanese arts & crafts which your guide will be happy to include in your tours of the town.

The Black-necked Crane is a medium-sized crane in Asia that breeds on the Tibetan Plateau and remote parts of India and Bhutan. It is 139 cm long with a 235 cm wingspan, and it weighs 5.5 kg. It is whitish-gray, with a black head, red crown patch, black upper neck and legs, and white patch to the rear of the eye.

The Black-necked Crane (Grus nigricollis) is the last discovered of 15 species of cranes in the world. This majestic bird is endemic to the Tibetan Plateau and migrates to lower altitudes, including several areas of Bhutan, towards late October to mid-February.

They arrive from the Tibetan Plateau, where they breed in the summer. They visit the Phobjikha Valley in large numbers, which is a declared protected area for the cranes, and also to other valleys in smaller numbers in central and eastern parts of Bhutan.

Implausibly, on arrival at Phobhjikha they are seen circulating Gangteng Monastery three times as if practicing kora - the "circumambulation", and repeat the same when they begin their return to the Tibet Autonomous Region in early spring.

Dochu La is a mountain pass in the snow covered Himalayas within Bhutan on the road from Thimphu to central Bhutan where 108 memorial chortens or stupas known as "Druk Wangyal Chortens" have been built by Her Majesty The Queen Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuk.

Bumthang is the most historic Dzongkhag/State in Bhutan if the number of ancient temples and sacred sites is counted. Bumthang consists of the four mountain valleys of Ura, Chumey, Tang and Choekhor, although occasionally the entire district is referred to as Bumthang Valley.

These picturesque valleys are carved by ancient glaciers. It's a peaceful place with potatoes, rice and buckwheat fields. Hence, the name Bumthang translates directly to 'beautiful fields'. Bumthang has many sacred places making it one of the top most pilgrimage destinations even for the Bhutanese.

Among them one is the Jampa Temple or Temple of Maitreya which is said to be one of the 108 temples built by Tibetan King Songtsen Gampo in 659 CE on a single day, to pin down an ogress to earth forever. It was divined that the supine demon was causing obstruction to the spread of Buddhism, and temples were constructed on her body parts that spread across Tibet & Bhutan.

The Burning Lake is another sacred site which looks more like a pool along the river of Tang Valley. Local legend says that the water contained a hidden holy treasure uncovered through divination by one of Bhutan’s most important religious figures, Terton Pema Lingpa, in the late 1400s.

Taktsang Monastery or Tiger’s Nest is one of the thirteen Tiger's Nest caves in historical Tibet in which Guru Padmasambhava practiced and taught Vajrayana. Taktsang which literally means "Tiger’s lair" was established in 8th century by Guru Padmasambhava as a meditation cave for him. This place was consecrated to tame the Tiger demon.

Years later, Zhabdrung Rinpoche wanted to establish an edifice at the Taktsang Pel P**k site. It was during a Tibetan invasion of Bhutan in 1644-46 that Zhabdrung and his Tibetan Nyingmapa teacher had invoked Padmasambhava and the protective deities at Taktsang to give them success over the invaders. However; Zhabdrung was not able to build a temple at Taktsang to celebrate the event, even though he very much wanted to do so.

Later, the wish of Zhabdrung to build a temple here, however, was fulfilled during the 4th Druk Desi Tenzin Rabgye (1638–96), the first, and only successor of Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal "a distant cousin from a collateral line descending from the 15th century ‘crazy saint’ Drukpa Kunley".

During his visit to the sacred cave of Taktsang Pel P**k during the Tsechu season of 1692 he laid the foundation for building the temple dedicated to Guru Rinpoche called the ‘Temple of the Guru with Eight Names’ (’gu ru mtshan brgyad lha-khang).
