 Mt.
Kailash is a mysterious mountain for travelers.
But for Buddhist, Hindus and Bonpo faithful
it is the abode of God Shiva; it is their sacred
land. Kailash peak and Manasarover Lake are
situated at 4500 meter above sea level; it is
at the highest elevation on the Tibetan plateau.
It is the source of holy rivers of south Asia
like Indus, Sutlej, Brahamaputra and Karnali.
Despite it’s barren and dry features the
lake and the mountain has magnetic influence
to devotees and visitors alike.
The
journey starts from Simikot, travel to Yari,
cross a high pass at Nara La and descend to
Humla Karnali River to reach the border village
of Hilsa and Khojarnath.
Drive to the region’s trading center at
Taklakot (Purang). Green and wet monsoon weather
changes to dry, cold and sunshine at the plateau.
The sky is deep blue with scattered cloud. From
Taklakot drive to Manasarover Lake and onward
to Darchen. Walk around Mt. Kailash and drive
back to the border and back to Kathmandu.
