Tigers Nest Monastery, Bhutan
While this unique mountainside monastery doesn’t make many world wonder lists, it should.
Perched high on a sheer cliffside at a dizzying height of 9,678ft, the 8th century Taktsang, or “Tiger’s Nest” is a highly revered Buddhist monastery. It’s the landmark of Bhutan and likely the only photo you’ve ever seen of this tiny Himalayan kingdom that measures its national well-being by Gross National Happiness instead of Gross National Product (I swear, that’s an official policy passed by Parliament).
