Zhiwling Hotel Paro, "Place of Peace"

The 45-room Zhiwaling combines the sensibilities of a fine Bhutanese guesthouse with the best of 21st Century technology. The hotel's elaborate hand-carved wooden cornices and masterful stonework coexist beautifully with cutting-edge telecommunication systems and Swedish under-floor heating.

The spa offers all the amenities of a modern fitness center – sauna, steam room, gym – as well as a traditional Bhutanese outdoor hot-stone bath. There is a Business Center, and a Tea House, two fully-equipped conference rooms and a Meditation House. One restaurant specializes in contemporary international cuisine, the other classic Bhutanese dishes. And everyone gathers at the Mad Monk Bar for after-hours fun.

The second floor houses a temple built with 450-year-old timbers from the famous Gangtey Monastery.

Its surroundings are filled with unique secluded places that most visitors will never see in a lifetime.

Zhiwa Ling is a tribute to the ornate architectural arts of Bhutan. Every part of the hotel is handmade, from the massive hand-carved wooden beams to the seemingly endless designs of the colorful, hand-painted ceilings and walls.
