Giantsgiants Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Google has finally done it. They have street view coverage of the mountainous Asian nation of Bhutan. Many locations, including Paro and Thimphu are covered. Yesterday, I spent hours exploring the country in Street View. Here's what you can expect to see when exploring Bhutan with Street View.

TheGodDamnMaster Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Michael J Fox went there about 5 years for his pseudo-autobiographical documentary The Adventures of An Incurable Optimist. Apparently they measure GDH, meaning Gross Domestic Happiness, and that surveys the populus' satisfaction with their lives there.

RoadRunner71 Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 holy f*ck ive come across a bhutan mountain ghost I hoped to see yetis. I am more of the samsquanch but I respect your opinion. Do they still have travel restrictions in Bhutan? What I would like is to see is Afghanistan with street view. Despite all the sh*t going on there it must be a really beautiful country.

Docfaustino Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 (edited) Beating people with holy books with one hand and making opium deals with the other is one definition of beautiful. ^ To me it seems more like a nightmare. Kyrgyzstan. Rural, poor, sparsely inhabited. GREEN. Most of their energy is generated through hydroelectric power. Notable for its positive treatment of women despite its lowly economic status, Kyrgyzstan is serene and calm in a land of post-Soviet civil strife and growing militancy. Unfortunately, the isolated status of the Kyrgyz people has made them susceptible to ISIS recruitment. With pictures like these it is a gem in the steppe. More on topic: Roll up in this Bhutan mansion feeling like Chow from the Hangover movies. Gameface on. "Like a boss" playing.
