Top Pics of Paro - "05 Tiger's Nest Monastery" by Sarahfey from a blog titled "Trek in the Himalayas" Excerpt: "Our flight to Bhutan had a stop in Kathmandu, Nepal, and Sarah got her first sight of the Himalayas.

It had taken five flights through five countries over five days to reach Paro from Windhoek, Namibia and there was a big temperature change - it was in the 40's in Bhutan as opposed to the 100's in Namibia. We had two days in Paro before our trek. We visited the Paro dzong (A dzong is a large Bhutanese building that serves many purposes. It was a combination of a fortress, administration center and a monastery/religious ritual site) and Tiger's Nest, an incredible monastery.

From steamy Indonesia to the chilly Himalayas. One day in Bangkok in between to get organized, then off on Druk Air to Bhutan with a stop in Calcutta on the way (that really looked steamy!)Because you have to visit Bhutan through a travel agent (I went through a Bhutanese one) you are never really on your own.

Our guidebook proclaimed that it is the only capital city in the world without a traffic light. While we were in Thimphu, we saw the national sport - archery. The target is quite small, about 3 feet tall and 1 foot wide, and it is 500 feet away from the archer! We could barely see the target when we stood next to the archer.
