Distance & Travel Time
All mode of transportation within Bhutan is by motor vehicles as there are no domestic air-lines or trains. However, motor roads are well maintained and link all parts of the nation. The mountainous terrain and winding roads restrict the average driving speed of vehicles to less then 35 kilometers per hour.
