by AB Travel
Program Overview
Day 1 Arrive in Paro
On arrival, you will be greeted by our representative and transferred to your hotel. In the afternoon, you will visit the National Museum, which was formerly the watchtower of the dzong. It now houses a collection of fine arts, paintings, thangkas, statues, and antiques. Later, you will drive to Drugyal Dzong (a ruined fortress - 16 km from Paro town). Although in ruins, this Dzong is of great historical importance. It was here that the Bhutanese finally defeated the invading Tibetans and drove them back.
