Bhutan, the Land of the Thunder Dragon, is home to some of the most sacred and breathtaking temples, deeply rooted in Buddhist traditions. From the iconic Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang) perched on a cliffside to the ancient Kyichu Lhakhang and the revered Punakha Dzong, each temple reflects Bhutan’s spiritual essence and rich architectural heritage.
Bhutan, across the Himalayas, is an enchanting kingdom filled with a culture and everyday life that is steeped in spirituality and tradition. While Buddhism is the prominent religion, there are beautiful and holy temples scattered throughout Bhutan representing the spiritual and cultural life of the country.
These temples are home to the impressive Tiger's Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang) suspended on a cliff and the ancient Kyichu Lhakhang to be considered built around the 7th century. These sacred temples are more than just active places of worship, but they are representations of peace, religious devotion, and Bhutanese cultural identity.
