Thereafter, visit Changangkha Lhakhang, which was built in the 12th century and is the oldest temple in Thimphu.

Enjoy spectacular views of the Himalayas if the weather is clear. Along the way, stop at Sopsokha Village and stroll through the rice fields to Chimi Lhakhang, a pilgrimage site for childless couples.

Stop to take photos at the Punakha Suspension Bridge, one of the longest suspension bridges in Bhutan, before staying overnight in your hotel.

This morning, make your way back to Paro, home to many old Bhutanese monasteries. Visit a Bhutanese heritage farmhouse to learn more about traditional Bhutanese living through the various historical and religious artefacts displayed. Thereafter, visit the 7th-century Kyichu Lhakhang, the oldest temple in Bhutan. End your day with a visit to Drugyel Dzong, the victory fortress built in 1647 by Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal to commemorate his victory over Tibetan invaders led by Mongolian warlord Gushri Khan in 1644.
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner
Embark on a scenic drive up to Chelela Pass, the highest pass in Bhutan at 3,988 metres above sea level, to glimpse the Paro Valley on one side and Haa Valley on the other. Next, visit Ta Dzong, which houses a fascinating collection of costumes, art, religious paintings, relics, national stamps and handicrafts. Thereafter, visit Rinpung Dzong; built in 1645 to defend the valley against Tibetan invaders, it now serves as an administration centre, a school for monks and the venue for the annual spring festival.
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner
After breakfast, embark on a hike to Bhutan’s most iconic landmark, Taktsang Lhakhang, also known as Tiger’s Nest Monastery. The monastery clings precariously to a granite cliff 800 metres above the Paro Valley. Legend has it that the great Guru Rinpoche flew to this spot on the back of a tigress. The monastery was built in 1692 at a cave in which the guru meditated in the 7th century. Spend the rest of the day at leisure. You may wish to enjoy a relaxing hot stone bath or head to Paro’s main street to pick up some souvenirs at your own expense.
Note
Please wear comfortable walking shoes for your hike to Taktsang Lhakhang. The hike is not recommended for pregnant women and travellers with pre-existing health conditions.
