Bhutan Honeymoons

The aftermath of the wedding whirlwind can leave lovebirds in serious need of a honeymoon holiday, ideally one that combines relaxation with a healthy dose of adventure (and more importantly one that leaves the planning to someone else!). A destination that does this effortlessly is Bhutan. While Bhutan honeymoons might not be everyone's first choice, we urge to consider it. From romantic walks spent exploring the Himalayas together to hearty meals and flowing fizz to toast to married life, there’s something for every kind of romantic here.

Discover the Taktsang Monastery

The Tiger’s Nest Monastery (aka Taktsang Lhakhang) is found just outside of Paro and is the beating heart of Bhutan. It’s a must for loved-up pairs and has even been blessed as one of Bhutan’s most sacred sites. Where better to celebrate the blessing of your recent nuptials than here? After a couple of hours spent climbing, the spectacular monastery set into the cliff side is finally revealed in a big, bold and utterly captivating way, making it easy to see why so many are drawn in.

Visit Buddha Dordenma

Married life built on a foundation of peace and happiness sounds like the (metaphorical) building blocks used to construct the great Buddha Dordenma. This gigantic Shakyamuni Buddha statue, set in the mountains of Bhutan, celebrates and emanates an aura of calm and joy in the world. It’s hard to miss too, standing tall at over 160ft. This is the perfect pilgrimage for happy couples in search of those all-important picture-perfect moments. We recommend hiking from behind the Buddha to enjoy an incredible perspective from above.
