- Tiger’s Nest Monastery in Bhutan is one of the most famous attractions, and the beauty is mind-blowing!

On Day 19 of our food and travel trip to Bhutan, we dedicated the entire day to trekking to Tiger’s Nest Monastery in Bhutan (Paro Taktsang in Bhutanese Dzongkha), which sits literally on the edge of a cliff. The hike takes about 3 - 4 hours or so, and since I wanted to beat the main crowds, my wife and I left from the hotel quite early to get a head start. It worked out quite well, because we were some of the only people on the trail that early in the morning. The fresh air was amazing. We wound our way along the trail, and soon we could get amazing views of Tiger’s Nest hidden in the clouds and on the side of the cliff.
The trail, although steep, isn’t really dangerous in any parts, as long as you keep your eye on the trail and don’t try to get too close to the edge. At the top of Tiger’s Nest Monastery they don’t allow any photography, so you have to check in your bag. We walked around the monastery for a little while, ate some snacks, and then headed down.
Despite Tiger’s Nest Monastery in Bhutan being one of the most famous attractions and icons of Bhutan, it really is spectacular.

It’s typically recommended that you visit Tiger’s Nest at the end of your trip to Bhutan so that you acclimatize better to the elevation.
Gangtey Palace Hotel - After returning from Tiger’s Nest, we checked into the classic Gangtey Palace Hotel for our final night in Bhutan!

Mark Wiens This was such a beautiful trip with amazing views, people, and most importantly food. Thank you for sharing so much of your life with us. Can't wait to see what else is to come! Take care & lots of love to Micah!
Have you been to pakistan yet?
That's such a beautiful & magical place to visit...ps. Mark blinked his eyes only 3-4 times in the whole video..
Wow

True, true indeed ✌🏾😅🤣

Visited Bhutan about 3 years ago...absolutely LOVED it. Bhutan is amazing. Also...your energy is infectious & so positive.
For me personally the Bhutan series was awesome because it really showcased the beautiful landscape and nice people. They seem to have such a simple but happy life. Thanks Mark and Ying.
I wish you could visit it once
Food as a reflection of the cultural life of Bhutan came out very well from these videos Mark. Great job done! Food is not just about eating but appreciating the people who cook it and projecting even the place that it belongs to. Thank you for shedding light on the ancient and well preserved Bhutanese culture, food and their tradition...🙏
Thank you for the beautiful food, people and what I enjoyed most was the scenery of the landscape and the Monastery....... so thank you for Bhutan
Hello Mark and your wife. I trekked to Taktsang in Dec 2016 and it was a wonderful experience. I thought I wouldn't be able to complete it coz it was quite steep. The end result and the serenity was completely worth it. Lovely memories and thank you.
Mark, thank you so much for sharing the Bhutan experience with us, looking forward to the next video!
I like this guy. The way he speaks ! Respecting others culture ,how is eating .its true that I'm enjoying by smiling.
Me too
Me three.
me too
wonder what he is, i see a bit of asian mixed with european
@@RatedA4Aliens , Yes, every country is mixed with African and Asian since thousands of years, its not a recent thing.
Thanks for taking us with you on all your food adventures, Mark & Ying. I didn't know much about Bhutan until I watched your videos. Keep it up and all the best!
He is a very good smiler, attractor, taster, food blender,food enjoyer, having nice family members, friendship maker, above all he is very lucky in having enjoyed all foods of all countries in this planet. This video is amazing.
I have to say i would watch any of your vlogs no matter how repetitive as you make them all interesting with your unique style of presenting. I also like how you're always enthusiastic and polite. Keep up the good work Mark...n ofcourse Ying.
Thanks for sharing your Bhutan adventure with us Mark. The food and the culture over there look great! Stay awesome! :D

Wonderful place.in my lice i can not visit this place cus i have no chance.this video helps me in watching this place

We look on
@@tuananham2080 p
Wow that was amazing to watch. I came here because I'm writing a paper of myself going on an imaginary trip and this looked right up my alley but now its truly on my bucket list to go visit. Thanks!
Enjoyed the entire Bhutan series immensely. Thanks Mark!
Inside the monastry it is majestic 🤩🤩I have went there 6 yrs back. It's so peaceful and chilling in there. There is also a underground dark place where they keep donations . A lovely dog was there and a waterfall. All mobile,camera had to be submitted. I went there with my parents❤️
I really enjoyed this entire video. I've learned so much about a country that I didn't know much about until now. Thank you for recording this series. I enjoyed watching you eat everything (even though most of the meals were similar). I think a lot of the viewers where forgetting that you guys visited when it was really cold and they store food up for the winter. When you have limited refrigeration and have to store food up for the winter your variety of options to eat might not be all that long.
Even I living in the states practice sustainability. I grow almost all of our veggies, can and dehydrate, and make a lot of things from scratch. It's a life style that everyone should know, understand, and practice. You just never know when you might not be able to run out to a grocery store or a restaurant for your next meal.
Everyone in Bhutan were very friendly. I especially enjoyed the parts when ya'll stayed in the farm stays. It was fun and interesting to see the different homes, how they grew and preserved their foods, and your rooms. There is nothing better than a home cooked meal. Beats any restaurant meal in my opinion.
Thanks again for the great series!! I really enjoyed it. I hope this series humbled people and I hope your viewers took more from this than just eating. It's way more than that.
I totally agree with Ebony :)
Yes, the food is a little repetitive and simple, but there is much positive to observe about it. First, it looks very fresh and healthy. Second, Bhutan has apparently not been bombarded by imported industrial food products. It appears that Bhutan is very expensive and while dismaying to the backpackers, I actually like to see that. That means some real benefit may be trickling down to the common folk.
Though a closed and repressive society, it appears that the general population enjoys a clean, healthy and well organized environment, with substantial material benefits. The natural beauty is remarkable. While the folks are not necessarily doing back flips of joy they seem content.
A well done series by Mark. I think he has been faithful to his subject matter. For those who want more spectacular dishes ... wait until he visits Greenland to explore the many ways seal and whale blubber can be prepared. Then you can truly groan.
Thank you very much Charles!
Mark Wiens I am with him. this trip taught me so much about bhutan. a place I would have never known or thought about
thanks mark
Well said. Kudos to your comment. I appreciate the fact that the food is genuine and unprocessed which aligns with my daily diet. I look forward to exploring the beauty of Bhutan soon.

Watching this video, refreshes my hike up there too . Yes the air is absolutely clean and fresh and amazing how so many different levels the monastery has.
Thank you very much for letting us to see this.
Thank you for sharing all the time you spent in Bhutan, Mark! I definitely want to go...a lot of great food and scenery.
The monastery and the views really completed the whole trip very well.I started to feel sad that "We" were leaving Bhutan.
that looks amazing. even the dog felt proud. stunning view up in the mountains. thanks so much Mark.
Absolutely, Gorgeous there! The trek to Tiger's Nest and the Monastery itself extremely beautiful! I have just loved these videos just for the views of the countryside and getting a glimpse of how these seemingly humble people live. They don't have much and they give their all. It was all very refreshing to me. Thank you for sharing these.
Is it hard trek?
Watching the program, Mr. Mark was happy and described in detail, easy to understand, encouraged and followed up and hoped to bring us to see more places.
kudos to you MARK. keep doing videos. Love from Kerala, INDIA.
I visited this 6 months back. It's incredible place. Spectacular. Thanks Mark for your beautiful video
I like how you enjoy any food that you eat. You seem to be a "HAPPY SOUL" & that makes you pretty Kool in my book.
Thanks
Awesome Video you've shared with us, Mark! Thank you very much. Now I get a better glimpse into the lives of the Bhutanese in terms of food, and of course, that amazing Tiger's Nest that should not be Missed! Am from Singapore and planning to visit Bhutan sometime next year. Keep sharing your videos!
*Wow two videos in the same day awesome for whatever both you guys withstood the very hard cold rustic life that most couldn't imagine we all including myself shared harsh opinions daily, we'll all get over it I hope you as well looking forward to you next foodgasmic tour, a 19 day thumbs up Mark & Ying can't wait to see little Micah soon...♥*
Just love e your upbeat and descriptive blogs. Thank you so much for taking us along to Bhutan!
Wow, the mountains are incredible. Thank you, Mark for showing us.
+ Mark Wiens This was one of my favorite episodes of all time!! Thank you Mark and have an awesome day!!!!
Super
I can't wait for the new videos!! And seeing Micah!
❤️
I watched whole Bhutan series in last two days... whatever people have said, but I loved each of your videos and I completely fell in love with Bhutan...and I'm dying to go there now
I enjoy all of your programs, but the Bhutan trip has been truly spectacular. Thank you very much.
i love his editing, like how the music sneaks in at 7:56 and he modulates the volume perfectly in sync with his narrative (not to say anything about how beautiful the music is, in this instance).

Amazing view and beautiful location. The trail looks little scary though... Good capture!

Beautiful temple...thank you 🙏🏾 for helping me see other cultures and food 🥘. I’m enjoying your videos. I’ve had some of these dishes. Yummy 😋!
Hi Mark. Thank you for showing such a wondrous natural beauty that is Bhutan. Through you, I saw the pristine beauty of Bhutan which I may never get the opportunity to experience by myself. Fallen in love with Bhutan! Of course I am a food lover first and that's the reason I am here. Again I Thank you and Ying for the amazing videos.
Thank you for your wonderful videos, Mark. I am from Bhutan and am currently away from home at university. These videos took me back home and made me especially hungry for some home cooked Bhutanese meals (even though its momos and ema datsi all day err day) :)

You have enthusiasm that is infectuous. The film coverage is so well done. The black four legged guide escorted you two up and down the hike by choice, clearly an advanced soul who enjoyed an outing and sought to watch over your safe passage.
All Bhutanese my brother. Love Bhutan from India. Beautiful place
keep that positive vibes Mark! dont mind negative people.. keep up the good work!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
My legs are sore from watching you hike up to the monastery! That would just about wipe me out for the rest of the day.
Anomie Train
😁 I felt the same way
What impacts me through this video is that I'm an English teacher in Korea, but mostly what we are exposed to is academic English rather than everyday English because we never speak English in Korea, so this video is going to teach me a lot of real English, which I have acquired a lot as I follow you. I'm in love with you, Mark. I expect to sharpen my colloquial English with your help, which is more meaningful to me as an English teacher. I really appreciate this site. I am now your huge fan until I have become like a native speaker. Thank you so much, Mark. ^ㅡ^ I'm Tony Joo, by the way.
Loved the beautiful hike to the Monastery. You and Ying made it look really easy in the thin air. Really enjoyed the dogs too. The food looked wonderful and reasonably priced the entire Bhutan trip.
You saved the best for last. This was awesome! 👌

How could one not want to visit a country where its focus is happiness and kindness is practically a legal requirement?
Bhutan look lovely. I must go. Thx Mark

Fortunate Bhutan...A country to be admired and emulated. :-D
