A photo of Taktshang Goemba, Tiger's Nest Monastery in Bhutan. Built in 1692, the monastery is one of the holiest sights in Bhutan and has become the symbol of Bhutan in foreign guidebooks. Legend has it that the Guru Rinpoche flew to the site on the back of a tigress and meditated for three months in a cave that lies within the structure.
