Attractions of Paro...
The mysterious and remote Dragay Phangtsho Lake at 4,300 masl rests at the lap of towering cliffs and a spectacular view of the never-ending undulating valleys below. Located north of Paro valley it is a two-hour drive on dirt road and from the Drana Samten Choling Goemba (Temple) a strenuous 7 hours hike to reach the Lake and back to the road-point. Despite being one of the toughest short hikes in Bhutan with the mountains literally glaring at your forehead, the hike is absolutely beautiful with sightings of various birds and animals and the mountains covered with colorful highland flowers. Lakes in Bhutan are considered sacred and holy and abode of the Dharma protecting deities; and pilgrimages to such lakes prepare the pilgrims for the after-death to overcome obstacles created by the Water Force (Chu Gi Jigpa) when one is lost in the Bardho, a state after death and before next life. Dragay Phangtsho or the Lake at the Lap of the Cliffs is one of the most sacred lakes and a must visit in one’s lifetime. One story relates that Yongdra Gyatsho, the fifth Dharma Master went into the Lake with a lit butter lamp, remained inside the lake for seven days and miraculously returned with various treasures, with the lamp still burning and his clothes as dry as the day he went in. Many religious stories abound the Lake and hence, is considered one of the holiest lakes in Bhutan. There are also few smaller lakes in and around the main lake and one can also see in the far off distance the Jele Dzong, Dongkola, Chidu Goemba and Mendrup Goemba (temple).

The Chumphu Nye is a beautiful day hike of about 7 hours along well trodden trails and though long hours however it is not strenuous. The gentle trail is mostly along the gushing river and you will come across waterfalls, holy water and sacred caves all along till the temple. A deep sense of spirituality and faith is evoked as one hikes through the peaceful forests and especially as different shapes and sizes of rocks spread all the way up to the monastery bearing deep meaning and reflecting the spiritual history of the place. At the foothill atop which bears the monastery is a dramatic waterfall, numerous caves where Guru Padmasambhava and his consorts, dakinis and legendary scholars were believed to have meditated. Also, among many spiritual invoking sites is the holy water that seeps out of a huge solid dry rock believed to heal various diseases and give long life. The most sacred object of the area is the floating statue of Dorji Phagmo (Vajravarahi) defying gravity. History has it that the statue was discovered from the lake above the Monastery, originally smaller in size but miraculously grown to the present size naturally. The caretaker of the monastery will prove to each and every visitor that the statue is indeed floating by moving a scarf back and forth under the statue. Dorje Phagmo, or the "Diamond Sow," is an incarnation of Dolma (Tara), the divine consort of Chenrezig (Buddha of Compassion). This day long hike is a good reprieve amid cool breeze, green forests and the sound of gushing rivers calms one’s mind and soul.
This two storied Druk Choeding lhakhang/temple is located in the heart of Paro town and a quick visit is recommended. The main relic of the temple is a statue of a Jowo Jampa (future Buddha) and also houses ancient war artifacts. Just like all the temples the Druk Choeding Lhakhang is also frequented by young and old devotees circumambulating the temple especially during morning and evening. Many small festivals, ceremonies and rituals take place in the temple all year round and this will make for an interesting visit with the monks chanting from the scriptures and playing the ceremonial musical instruments.
