Posted by Nepal Trek on January 5th, 2017

Among our variety of heli visits, one of our most eminent is the Mount Kailash yatra. Mount Kailash, the house Lord Shiva and a position of unceasing delight, is the most consecrated top for the Hindus. Situated in the far west corner of Tibet, the 6700-meter high Mount Kailash is viewed by the Tibetans as the appearance of Mount Meru, where author of Bon religion, Tonpa Shenrab, is accepted to have plunged from paradise; Buddhists as the homestead Samvara and by the Jains as a sacrosanct site where their prophet, Rishaba, achieved profound illumination. Parikrama around Mount Kailash over a 5630 meter Drolma La (pass) is said to eradicate the transgressions of a lifetime. Similarly, sacred is the Manasarovar Lake. Washing in the holy Lake Manasarovar is viewed as a fundamental part of the whole journey. The lake is determined to the Tibetan level flanked by the great Gurla Mandata. Consequently, altogether called the Kailash mansarovar visit or Kailash mansarovar yatra. Your Kailash Yatra starts with a flight from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj and after that to Simikot, trailed by a heli visit to Nepal-Tibet Border. A 4WD Land cruiser or vacationer mentor then takes you to Lake Manasarovar, where your profound voyage starts.

The Holy Muktinath, a consecrated place both for Hindus and in addition Buddhists, is situated at a height of 3,750 m at the foot of Thorong La go in Mustang area. The Hindus call the place Mukti Kshetra, which implies "the place of salvation", while the Buddhists call it Chumig Gyatsa, Tibetan for 'Hundred Waters'. The principle holy place of Muktinath is a pagoda - molded sanctuary committed to the Lord Vishnu. Water from the Gandaki River spurts out of the 108 waterspouts close to the temple,where Hindu fans scrub down. Muktinath is likewise one place where one can discover 'saligrams'. Saligram (Ammonite fossil) Is a dark stone that when torn open, uncover the fossilized stays of ancient ammonites shaped around 130 million years back. Hindus trust that Lord Vishnu dwell in the 'saligrams'. Jwala Mai Temple, Marme Lhakhang and Gompa Sarwa are alternate religious holy places situated in the region of Muktinath Temple.

You can either climb up there from Jomsom which will take you around 5-7 hours or essentially pick our offer of heli flights to Muktinath. Heli visit to the hallowed Muktinath has as of late been picking up notoriety. Helicopter visit is an extraordinary approach to spare time as well as gives you an immaculate perspective of the entire locale from a 10,000 foot, something just a modest bunch of individuals experience. Some say the muktinath heli visit felt like a 'children's story'. One can just discover, right!
