A town steeped in history, cultural significance, and breathtaking landscapes. The district is not only home to the nation's sole international airport, the famously challenging Paro Airport, but it also houses the renowned Tiger's Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang).

The town's main street showcases traditionally decorated buildings, and notable landmarks include the Dungtse Lhakhang, Ugyen Perli Palace, and the ancient Rinpung Dzong. Paro boasts a rich historical legacy, with sites like the 15th-century Kila Gonpa and Dranggye Gonpa founded in the 16th century. The district's sacred sites, including Taktshang, Kitchu, and Drugyel, add to the cultural tapestry of this Himalayan gem.
