Landing at Paro air-strip!

View of Bhutan from ahigh. Getting into the Paro valley to maneuver for a landing is a tricky proposition as the hills around are of a considerable altitude and the pilot must quickly shed height to be able to land comfortably at Paro, as it's also a short runway. One can see the Paro Chhu (river) below - a river that is teeming with trout! On gets glimpses of monasteries (dzong), village huts, agricultural fields and the typical agrarian countryside of the Bhutanese valley of Paro.

Bhutan is a kingdom in South Asia, located at the eastern end of the Himalayas and bordered to the south, east and west by the Republic of India and to the north by the People's Republic of China.
