Information about Paro

Paro is a small but a dynamic town in itself. The thing about Paro is that most people visit it because it almost certainly falls in the itinerary for those travelling to Bhutan by flight. But even without the airport, the quaint Bhutanese town has a charming appeal of its own. Almost everyone who travels to Bhutan knows about Paro Taktsang – the Tiger Nest Monastery, the first abode of Guru Rinpoche in Bhutan. There are many other monasteries, dzongs and temples to explore, as well as exciting trekking routes and hiking trails. Here is the basic Paro travel guide to help you in making the itinerary properly and having a good trip.

Weather in Paro: Paro enjoys a pleasant subtropical-temperate climate for most of the year. While the climatic zone keeps the city warm enough for outdoor visits whenever the sky is clear, it is the surrounding altitude of the country that is responsible for most of the cold. The spring, early summer and autumn are the best times to visit Paro for sightseeing, trekking and other outdoor activities. From March to May and from October to November, Paro gets the thickest crowd of the year. In between these two periods, the monsoon clouds keep the city drenched. And the winters, although not half as chilly and unbearable as up north, still see lesser people because of the -1°C to -2°C.

Nightlife in Paro: Paro is not known for having a vibrant nightlife. Most restaurants have their own bar, but they do not remain open longer than 9-10 PM. However, there are a few nightclubs here and there. Club Ecstasy, Club K, Millennium Club and the UMA Paro Bar right beside the airport are some of the better haunts for a night-time adventure.

Food in Paro: Bhutanese food is worth savouring while one is on vacation there. Ema Datshi is their most loved dish, which is made of red-hot chillies along with really smooth goat or yak cheese. Consult a Paro travel guide to find out where you can find the best and hottest dish of Ema Datshi. Also, enjoy Phaksha Pha (pork and chillies) and Jashu Maru (spicy chicken) along with the locally sourced spirit Ara. Bukhari restaurant is one of the iconic eateries of Paro. Their Uma cheeseburger, made with Wagyu beef and Bumthang’s special Gouda cheese is a hit. There are popular cafes as well, like Champaca Café, Yegyel Café and Brioche café.

Shopping in Paro: The best place to buy souvenir items at the end of your trip is the Paro craft market. Here, one can expect to find all types of local handmade products that Bhutan makes. Tibetan thangkas, Buddhist trinkets and prayer wheels, statues and figurines, handmade items made of wood, cane and bamboo, wall décor and room décor items, textiles and more. Lama Tshering Dorji General shop is the place to buy silver amulets, prayer flags, incense sticks and carved block prints, while one can browse Chencho handicrafts for a vast collection of local handicrafts and textiles, along with a glimpse into actual weavers working real-time.

Festivals in Paro: The Festival Ground in Paro comes alive during March-April, celebrating the famous Paro Tshechu festival. This festival is held in honour of Guru Rinpoche, who brought Buddhism to Bhutan. It goes on for days. Trained veteran dancers perform dramatic interpretations of various historical and mythological stories of Bhutan’s past, dressed in vibrant clothes and vivid masks. The folk music and dance is something unique about Bhutan and worth witnessing once in a lifetime.

    Jayesh's 7 days trip to Paro

    We had an incredible experience with Green Zone Destinations during our trip to Bhutan. From the moment we arrived to the time we left, every detail was perfectly taken care of. The seamless entry and exit process made our journey stress-free, and their personalized service truly stood out. The sel
    ection of hotels was spot on, offering comfort and wonderful hospitality. The arrangements for the cab, driver, and guide were exceptional. A special thanks to our guide, Narendra, for his in-depth knowledge and warm demeanor, and to our driver, Tashi, who ensured we had a smooth and comfortable journey throughout. We’d also like to extend our gratitude to Sharmila for her personalized welcome at Thimphu, which made us feel truly special and set the tone for a wonderful trip. Exploring Bhutan with their help was an absolute joy. We couldn’t have asked for more. Everything was perfect, and we are completely satisfied. Thank you, Green Zone Destinations, for making our trip memorable!

    Divya's 7 days trip to Paro

    The tour was awesome and without any hassles. Our pickups and drops from airport and to airport were always on time, and the tour bus was always on time. This helped us from nuances of delays.full rating for this. The tour guide was quite gentle kind and pleasing and always answered all our quest
    ions, we had great discussions and cultural knowledge exchange with Bijay Gurung on the trip. The bus captain was quite amiable and was always drove with cool mind ensuring absolute safety. The hotel staff was well informed by our tour operator GreenZone (Sharmila Ma'am). It is highly notable that Sharmila Ma'am always responded all our questions how much ever basic and silly could be within no time. She has her WhatsApp always on, and gives a lot of priority to customers' queries and always answers promptly. Her continuous help and guidance made our journey very well informed and comfortable as we knew where we are ad what we are supposed to do. A big thank you to Sharmila Ma'am and her team for making my daughter's first birthday grand in Bhutan. Heartfelt Kadin Chhe to you and Bhutan. We highly recommend Green Zone and Sharmila Ma'am for all tourist activities for Bhutan. We also thank Travel Triangle for their easy to use application and prompt service for helping us choose the agent. Without travel triangle we won't be able to find the right Travel partner so easily.

    Suraj Kumar Sureka

    Kolkata

    Suraj's 7 days trip to Paro

    It was an amazing experience booking this trip with Green Zone Destination (GZD). The trip was well organized by Sharmila ji and near to perfect. She took care of everything and was very pro active in all her communications both before the trip and during the trip as well. She ensured that all prob
    lems / questions were answered and the trip experience was smooth. For example we were not happy with the food options in one of the hotels and we raised it to Sharmila ji. She immediately escalated the message to the hotel and we were treated with a wide spread of breakfast options in the next morning. The driver was calm and well behaved. The guide was quite knowledgeable. He provided insights / shared tales in all the places we visited. The best part was hiking to Tiger nest monastery. The view was breath taking. Overall very well planned. Kudos to GZD team and Sharmila ji :)
