    Same place as Tashigang?

    Usable?

    [edit]

    I changed the status of this article from usable back to outline. Are there no places to eat here? Also, any contact info for Druk Denjung Hotel? (WT-en) Fastestdogever 13:41, 18 February 2007 (EST)


    Kanglung

    [edit]

    Trashigang is a small town. Kanglung is a village about twenty to thirty minutes from the town. They are totally different entities, but Kanglung has been included in the Trashigang article, not because it is in the town, but because it doesn't have enough attractions to be a stand alone article. There is one highway in eastern Bhutan, which passes through both Kanglung and Trashigang. If you are coming from the direction of Trashigang Town, the cafe is on the right when passing through the village. If you are coming from Kaling or the airport, it is on the left. As it is on a highway, it is not easy to slow down and look both right and left for the cafe. Therefore, I added the info that it is on the right when coming from Trashigang Town for the convenience of the traveller. I could equally have written that it was on the left when coming from Kaling. I'm assuming that user Ibaman did not read the intro to the article, but instead assumed that it was only about Trashigang Town, in which case his point is valid. But, as stated, it not, and Kanlung and Trashigang Town are a 20 to 30 min drive apart. As he insists on not considering a reasonble point, then I hope he can find a way to indicate on which side of the road the cafe is located for the benefit of the traveller. As I have repeatedly informed Ibaman, the cafe is in Kanglung, not on the road to Kanglung, which insists on adding and will confuse travellers as it implies that it is not in the village. I know that road well. It is a highway, and it is not convenient for people to turn their heads left and right looking for the cafe or to stop and ask, and so I added that it is on the right when travelling from the town of Trashigang. Adding Lower Market is also useless, as travellers will have no idea where lower market is located. It is a very small village, and its only distinguishing feature is a small college. Anyway, I'll let others decide this issue. I have no intention to enter a editing war. Thank you.

    I'm a little familiar with Trashigang, and the contributors points are valid, helpful, and correct. (User:SingyeDzong)
