With its pristine landscape, striking dzongs and centuries-old monasteries, Paro offers a beguiling first impression of Bhutan. Nestled in a broad valley at the foot of Mount Jomolhari, this historic town is home to Bhutan’s only international airport, yet feels worlds away from the trappings of modernity.
Rising nearly 3,000 metres above sea level, Taktsang Monastery, or the Tiger’s Nest, clings precariously to the cliffs above the Paro Valley floor; reaching it by foot is undoubtedly one of Asia’s most rewarding day hikes. Nearby, the National Museum of Bhutan offers a rich introduction to the kingdom’s culture, housed in a former watchtower overlooking the valley.
Travellers will find exquisite boutique lodges and wellness-focused resorts tucked discreetly into pine forests and rice terraces, where private guides, spa rituals and fine Bhutanese dining await. Whether exploring hidden temples, sipping tea on a panoramic terrace or simply breathing in the cool, cedar-scented air, Paro invites you to relax and recharge.
Perched on a forested hillside overlooking the Paro Valley, COMO Uma Paro offers a serene gateway to Bhutan’s spiritual heartland. With elegant villas, holistic wellness, expert guides and nourishing cuisine, it’s a perfect blend of Himalayan culture and contemporary luxury.
