|
(20 night/21 days) Trek Cote : NEPAL/PTT/TK 14 |
Like Dolpa, Mustang had been a
forbidden land thus far. It is opened for a limited number of
tourists. Lo Manthang (Mustang) is located north of the main
Himalayan chain between the snow capped mountain on the east and
west bordering Tibet and, relatively wide and leveled ridge towards
north with pass not higher than 4,600 m. The climate and land is dry
and arid. Villages are located in the valley at the altitude of
3,300 m. to 4,000 m. where important historical sites are also
located. It was an important salt trading post in the trans
Himalayan belt.
From Kagbeni to Tzug; as you walk towards north the Kali Gandaki
valley extends and becomes broader. Walk to Samar; it is surrounded
by the ruins of temples and fortes. Visit the famous cave at
Rongbyoung Chorten. It has carvings of many deities on the stone
walls: the figure of Padmasambhava dominates all the deities. The
famous cave speaks of the history of this valley of Lo before the
advent of Buddhism. The travel from Giling to Tsarang pass through
important ruins at Gemi. As Tsarang is approached after crossing the
passes the monastery is evidently visible. In the monastery the
fresco painting of thousand Buddha, hanging thankas and antique
ceiling, and other sacred objects are reminder of its rich cultural
past.
After Tsarang the walk to Lo Manthang is short. It is dotted by
houses and monastery enclosed in the fortress. The route to Lo have
been used for centuries by traders and few scholars; and now by the
tourists.
