The Country That Doesn't Look Real - The First Impressions Of Tiger's Nest, Paro 🇧🇹

Hiking to Tiger's Nest in Bhutan is an unforgettable experience worth every step. The trail winds through a lush forest, across a babbling stream, and up a steep incline towards the iconic monastery perched on a cliffside. The hike takes about 2-3 hours each way, and it's challenging but doable for most people with a moderate fitness level.
As you climb higher, you'll be rewarded with stunning views of the surrounding valleys and mountains. The last stretch of the hike involves climbing a steep staircase leading to the monastery. It's a bit of a workout, but the view from the top is absolutely breathtaking.
The Tiger's Nest Monastery, also known as Paro Taktsang, is one of Bhutan's most sacred sites. Legend has it that Guru Rinpoche, an important figure in Bhutanese Buddhism, flew to this site on the back of a tiger and meditated there for several years. The monastery was built around the cave where he meditated; it has been an important pilgrimage site for centuries.
Tiger's Nest was the highlight of my trip from Bhutan, and scenery that I will never forget. It was a lifetime experience and privilege to get the chance and the health to make the trip happen. These views were only iconic panoramic views that represented Bhutan on websites and travel journals, but now, it is more than a real-life experience for me.
________________________________________
After traveling to over 40 countries, I got used to experiencing different sides of the world, learning about cultures and traditions, and seeing extremes that become normal after a while. Since I have been to Afghanistan, I have not experienced the "wow" effect since last year. But this has changed with my short visit to the Buddhist Kingdom of Bhutan.
Bhutan is the country that I believe is the most authentic in the world. It is probably the only country prioritizing "High Value, Low Volume" tourism. "High Value" relates to targeting mindful and responsible visitors, ensuring high revenue per visitor, and supporting a quality tourism infrastructure. Bhutan aims to avoid hyper-tourism and its damaging effect on the environment. The country currently allows only 300,000 visitors per year, which was much less in the past years.
After stepping into Bhutan, let me say I have been officially in every South Asian country. There are so many unique things about Bhutan that are very surprising to the rest of the world:
1. "Bhutan" translates to "Land of the Thunder Dragon."
2. Thimpu is one of only two capital cities in Asia without a single traffic light. (The other is Pyongyang, North Korea.)
3. Bhutan is one of the last countries to introduce television to its people. The government lifted a TV and Internet ban only 25 years ago.
4. National dress is compulsory for Bhutanese citizens.
5. Bhutan has never been conquered.
6. Bhutanese people love chillies.
7. Mountaineering is now banned, as the highest peaks are considered sacred.
8. All tourists must pay a 200 USD fee per day just to be in the country.
9. Bhutan is the ONLY carbon-negative country in the world.
10. Bhutan is known for its unique Gross National Happiness (GNH) philosophy.

Aaaaaw...I will miss Lila and driver, such amazing and knowledgeable guides. I really love and enjoyed watching your Bhutan series. I feel a little sad..it feels like I am also leaving the country. I am not religious but I feel like I have developed a deep connection with the country through your videos. And it's so nice to see very friendly and cute little doggie in your video. But I feel sorry for him..too cute to be tied up and not roam around 🥺 he/she deserves lots of cuddles and belly rubs...poor baby 🥺😞
Congrats with your new bride and best of luck too
