The '''Kingdom of Bhutan''' is an isolated country in [[Southern Asia]]. In the North it is bordered by the huge Himalaya mountains with a not exactly clear border to the region of [[Tibet]], [[China]]. In the South it borders [[India]].

There are no highways in Bhutan. Most roads are going through the mountains and they are hardly straight. There ist not much private traffic in Bhutan because most people do not own vehicles. But thats may be a reason why hitchhiking is very common there. But because of the low traffic, the roads through the mountains and an opinion that everything has to be done slow, you will need some time, even for small distances.

There is a nice film called "Travellers & Magicians" which gives you a feeling how hitchhiking in Bhutan might feel.
