Land Of The Thunder Dragon
The subalpine Himalayan mountains in the north rise from the country's lush subtropical plains in the south. In the Bhutanese Himalayas, there are peaks higher than 23,000 feet above sea level. Gangkhar Puensum is Bhutan's highest peak and may also be the highest unclimbed mountain in the world. The wildlife of Bhutan is notable for its diversity, including the Himalayan takin. The capital and largest city is Thimphu.
Lovely artwork on these buildings

Buthan is a very mountainous region meaning the animals we consider fat, lazy, dumb and stupid are very clever, skinny and sure footed the higher you go in your geography worth a giggle if you've never seen a mountainaness cow.

Bhutan's border with China is largely not demarcated and thus disputed in some places. Approximately 104 sq miles remain under discussion between China and Bhutan. On 13th November 2005, Chinese soldiers crossed into the disputed territories between China and Bhutan and began building roads and bridges. Bhutanese Foreign Minister Khandu Wangchuk took up the matter with Chinese authorities after the issue was raised in the Bhutanese parliament. In response, Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang of the People's Republic of China said that the border remains in dispute and that the two sides are continuing to work for a peaceful and cordial resolution of the dispute, denying that the presence of soldiers in the area was an attempt to forcibly occupy it. An Indian intelligence officer said that a Chinese delegation in Bhutan told the Bhutanese they were "overreacting". The Bhutanese newspaper Kuensel said that China might use the roads to further Chinese claims along the border.
Cows either enjoying the roads or! resenting them

Stone tools, weapons, elephants, and remnants of large stone structures provide evidence that Bhutan was inhabited as early as 2000 BC, although there are no existing records from that time. Historians have theorized that the state of Lhomon (literally meaning, "southern darkness"), or Monyul ("Dark Land"), a reference to the Monpa, an ethnic group in Bhutan & Arunachal Pradesh) may have existed between 500 BC and AD 600. The names Lhomon Tsendenjong (Sandalwood Country), and Lhomon Khashi, or Southern Mon (country of four approaches), have been found in ancient Bhutanese and Tibetan chronicles.
The word “Bhutan” translates to “Land of the Thunder Dragon.”
Bhutan is one of the last countries in the world to introduce television to its people. The government lifted a ban on TV and on the Internet only during 1999. internet wasn't such a wait as it was for the T.V
Bhutan is a wonderfully weird place did you know they take their environment incredibly serious on top of banning Tobacco they have a law where as it's the first country in the world with specific constitutional laws on its population to protect the environment. Among its laws: At least 60 percent of the nation must remain under forest cover at all times. A wonderfully weird place (^o^)
