Samdrup Jongkhar
The road from Trashigang to Samdrup Jongkhar, completed in the 1960s, enables the eastern half of the country to access and benefit from trade with the south as well as across the Indian border. There is little to see in this area, other than the busy market which straddles the border. Samdrup Jongkhar is a convenient exit/entry town for tourists who have arranged to visit the neighbouring Indian state of Assam.
