Not really! I visited Bhutan in early 2017 and Bhutan is not that strict with visa admissions I forgot I'm an Indian and Indian citizens get a visa on arrival...
Still though, Bhutan Is BEAUTIFUL. It's worth all the hassle.

But For me a hongkonger it is so much harder i took me so long to get my visa for Bhutan and lots of chinese and hongkongers want to go there so its really hard I think it is the Same for the other countries that are not nieghbours of Bhutan.
G.B.:
It's a weird screwed up world when Djibouti and Myanmar are safer to visit than France, Italy, Germany and the UK...
NELs:
If there's any part of the world that I find underrated I would say it's Central Asia. Why doesn't TAR visit these "-stan" countries. The only one they visited is Kazakhstan. Central Asia needs more love. Of course they won't visit Afghanistan or Pakistan right now. I want them to stop visiting China and Southeast Asia in general. It's overdone, if you want to visit this region again then visit Laos or Myanmar (Burma), those will be something new. I want all the SAFE "-stan" countries visited. I would personally choose Kyrgyzstan as my pick for the next they visit. Many of the former Soviet Union nations in Asia have grown safe between the time the separated and to present day. Another country that I find surprising that the race has not gone back and visited is Kenya. I know it might be a bit iffy, but the thing thing they did in TAR 5 is one of the most infuriating things the race has ever done. I would rant about that on the "Worst TAR leg" thread later on. They can go to the major national park there. I would also want Canada to finally have a pit stop. My top two picks for cities they can do penultimate legs in are Winnipeg and Vancouver. After that they can Go to Minneapolis (Winnipeg penultimate) or Seattle (Vancouver penultimate).

Not sure if you're aware of this or not, but TAR Israel just visited Kyrgyzstan a few months ago and spent two legs in and around Bishkek.
