Take an early breakfast and embark on a hike to Bhutan’s most iconic landmark, Taktsang Monastery, also known as Tiger’s Nest Monastery. It clings precariously to a granite cliff 900 metres above Paro Valley. The monastery was first built in 1692 at a cave where legend has it that the great Guru Rimpoche flew to the site atop the back of a tigress and meditated in the cave in order to subdue evil demons residing within. After an unforgettable hike and spiritual journey, it is time to treat yourself to the ultimate relaxation with a hot stone bath. Sink into the warmth of the natural stones and let your tiredness melt away as you soak in the healing waters. It is the perfect way to unwind after a day of adventure and exploration.
