Cheap Flights to Paro (PBH)

Paro is a charming small town in Bhutan, on the banks of Pa Chhu, the river that gives it its name. Intrepid travellers seeking out new and unspoilt destinations take cheap Paro flights to see the incredible scenery, Buddhist temples and architecture, and traditional buildings and streets.

Flights to Paro

For those taking cheap Paro flights to the region, Paro's airport is just seven kilometres from the town and just over fifty from the larger centre of Thimphu. For those taking direct flights to Paro from the UK, the flight duration is around 10 hours, but this can be significantly increased if your flight to Paro makes stops along the way.

Getting around Paro

You can arrange for a car to meet your flight, especially if you're staying at one of the better hotels in Paro, otherwise cheap Paro car hire is available at the airport or within the town. You can take a bus to most places and daily services to Thimpu leave from the northwest part of town. Taxis can be picked up all over town.p>

What to see in Paro

There's plenty of inspiring architecture and unspoilt countryside to enjoy and the town itself has a lovely traditional feel, albeit with a burgeoning modern section. Most visitors go first to Paro Dzong, one of the most impressive buildings in Bhutan and a superb example of classical architecture, with huge walls dominating the site and visible throughout the town and valley. Try the Sunday Market for local foods and products such as dried yak cheese and betel nut from India. If you're feeling brave jellied cow skin is also a local delicacy!
