Day 20 - Paro to Thimphu
Overnight at the Taj Thimpu
We stay at the very recently and luxurious Thimpu Taj, right in the centre of the small town, built in the traditional local style. Visit the fort-monastery Trashi Chhoe Dzong, now the summer residence of the monks and where several government departments have their offices. Thimpu is small and easy to explore by foot. There is a busy weekend market, a golf course (one of the highest in the world!), several interesting museums and the small zoo where you can see the takin - Bhutan's national animal.
