Paro Taktsang (Tigers Nest)

What people say

"Legend has it that Padmasambhava, the ‘Second Buddha’, meditated here for three months when he brought Buddhism to Bhutan. He’s said to have arrived on a flying tiger; for those without such transportation, a steep, two-hour climb is the only way it can be reached."
"We have all seen this photo , haven’t we? This is the famous Tiger’s Nest trek. Once you finish the hike, you can relax at the cafe on top."
