Paro Taktsang (also known as the ‘Tiger’s Nest’) was built into a cliff side in 1692. Constructed on the very spot that Guru Rinpoche, a ‘second Buddha’ according to contemporaries, is supposed to have flown to on a flaming tigress and then meditated for three years, this is an important cultural and religious site.

4.Punakha Tsechu Dance

The Punakha Tsechu features hundreds of firecrackers and some very impressive footwork. Held to celebrate Guru Rinpoche bringing Buddhism to Bhutan, it’s also centred on one of the country’s greatest Dzongs, Punakha Dzong. Another is Changangkha Lhakhang, a fortress-like temple on a ridge above Thimphu.
5. Bhutan Natural Greens
There’s something morally and physically invigorating about visiting a country that boasts a farming industry that’s 100 per cent organic and a level of forest coverage that pumps out oxygen at the same rates the rest of us are emitting carbon dioxide.
6. LuxuryHotels
2015 has been a good year for Bhutan’s luxury sector, with a Taj Hotel, a Six Senses and two Le Meridiens opening. So put your backpack away and get the cucumber slices out, Bhutan is now just as much about glamorous resorts as it is about outdoor pursuits.
