The flight to Paro is one of the most exciting flights in the entire Himalayas. As the plane flies north towards the Tibetan border, the green wall of the hill known as the Gateway of Bhutan continues to rise from the plain. The white river flows through the valley, waterfalls pour down from the forest slopes, and the huge snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas to the north rise into the sky. When the plane enters the Paro River Valley, peek through the window and you will see Paro Dzong and the Ta Dzong (watch tower, now converted into a museum) overlooking the Paro River. Representatives of Truly Shangri-La will receive you at the airport and after completing all formalities at the airport you will drive through the beautiful Paro Valley to your hotel. Truly Shangri-La will make sure you have an amazing Bhutan himalayan tour.

After lunch, go on a tour to Buddha Point, a short drive away from Thimphu city center, visitors can enjoy the beauty of Thimphu Valley. Pay tribute to the largest Buddha statue in the Thimphu and pray. Then take a stroll overlooking the valley. Next, visit the memorial Chorten where people constantly chant mantras and turn the prayer wheel around it. Built in the memory of the third King at the same time serves as a monument for peace.
