ZURI DZONG FORT

The Zuri Dzong in Paro is the oldest in Bhutan and is, therefore, one of the most important places to see in Paro and yoyu must include in your bhutan travel packages. Built in the early 14th century, it is not only a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Bhutan and Paro but also the art, architecture and lifestyle of the people back then.

The structure, despite being so old, looks as good as new, without any wear or tear, and is supported by a double-wall as well as bridge. There are several murals on the walls of the Dzong which are dedicated to the Buddhist protector- Zaa. It is also a great view-point, and you can enjoy the scenic beauty of the surroundings from this 5-storey structure.
