MOUNT KAILASH
Mt. Kailash (6,714 m) in western Tibet is venerated by both Hindus and Buddhists. For Hindus, the pyramidshaped peak of Kailash is the abode of Lord Shiva. Buddhists revere the mountain as the Jewel'of the Snow. Pilgrims, holy men and monks journey from Nepal, India and
Tibet to make a ritual circumambulation of the sacred mountain and bathe in the icy waters of Lake Manasarovar. The lace is situated at an altitude of 4,570 m. For the faithful, the strenuous trek and freezing temperatures are worth it for earning religious merit. The journey to Mt. Kailash and Lake Manasarovar requires trekking on foot and driving. From Kathmandu, we move out on the highway to Lhasa and turn west at Zangmu for the cross- country trip to Kailash. Traveling along the northern side of the Himalaya, there are stark mind-boggling vistas of the Tibetan plateau and endless grasslands where sheep and yaks graze.
