A Himalayan-Buddhist legend tells the tale of the guru Padmasambhava. After flying a tiger to the cliffs of Paro Valley (today in Bhutan) he meditated until transforming into eight incarnated forms. The cliffs became a holy place and his reincarnated form built a temple in 1692; hanging from the cliffs themselves.
While this tale is enchanting, what is truly enchanting is the actual temple from the tale: The Tiger’s Nest monastery.
