Bhutan Good to know

Technology is one of the things that Bhutanese people did not want for their country. For this reason several technological innovations already being used all over the world are new in the country of Bhutan. This includes internet and mobile phones. Many mobile providers do not have agreements with the Bhutanese government. Plus the phone towers are limited. Thus, when coming to the kingdom travelers should note that they can literally be disconnected from the world.

From problems with man-made produce to natural gifts, a Bhutan traveler should also be warned that the dogs in this kingdom are as ferocious as those in Mongolia. Foreign visitors should be extra careful in approaching these animals. They are very territorial and overprotective of their assumed property. In addition, these dogs also howl themselves to sleep at night. For interested comers, better pack on earplugs or earmuffs to ensure a good night's sleep after a whole day of adventure in this mountainous region.
