Lo
Manthang Trekking |
 |
|
|
Forbidden to
foreigners until 1992 Mustang
remains a controlled region which
very few people visit, a
deliberate policy of cultural and
environmental preservation. Our
destination is the exotic walled
city of Lo Manthang the seat of
the King. The Kings Palace is
surrounded by a maize of gompas
and private houses all enshrined
within the city boundary walls.
Unmolested Mustang is frozen in
time it remains one of the
ultimate journeys ever likely to
be made in one lifetime. The trek
allows us to visit all the major
villages on route
|
|
The tour begins
with a flight from Kathmandu to
Jomsom via the beautiful lakeside
town of Pokhara. We commence our
trek in Jomosom (lower Mustang)
passing along the banks of the
Kali Gandaki River towards Kagbeni.
On route to Lo Manthang in upper
Mustang we pass through the
extraordinary village of Tsarang.
In this village (around 800 years
old) a set of human hands, said to
belong to the site’s master
builder, still remain. According
to legend, the king cut the
builder’s hands off to prevent
him from constructing any other
place to rival it.
