Kailash Tour - Pilgrimage Journey in Tibet
The Once in Lifetime holy journey to Kailash Tour takes you to mythical Mount Kailash (6714m) and Lake Manasarovar. Mount Kailash, the holiest of all the sacred mountains, is the spiritual junction for the Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bonpos. This Holi mountain is situated in the western part of Tibet. For the devout pilgrim, a visit to Mt. Kailash and Lake Manasarovar ultimately realizes their spiritual pursuit. For adventure lovers, this Mount Kailash tour offers rugged beauty, remoteness, solitude, and the adventure of a lifetime.
We explore the Shangri-La treasure trove of architectural masterpieces before we head to Mount Kailash for proper acclimatization. We visit the majestic Potala palace, sparkling ancient Barkhor square, the scenic Buddhist monasteries of Drepung, once the largest The Jokhang temple, a spiritual center, the fabulous summer palaces of the Dalai Lama Norbulinkha, and the peaceful and eye-catching monk debating in Sera Monastery.
Tibet and Mansarovar Lake
After proper acclimatization and witnessing Lhasa wonder, we take the rigorous overland driving, trekking, and camping through the remote and wild western Tibet to Mount Kailash. In our journey to Kailash tours, we can see the numbers of isolated villages, nomads tents with flocks of sheep, domesticated mountain goats, and yaks grazing in the vast field. It is a journey into a remote and secluded land where one seems to leave behind worldly attachments as one travels and treks towards the holy lake and Mt. Kailash Kora.
Lake Mansarovar, an expanse of sparkling blue water sprawling over several miles, is believed to be the seat of Brahma (the Creator of the Universe), and the snow-capped Mount Kailash is considered the abode of Lord Shiva and his consort Parvati. The entire Kailash Kora trek is the holiest of all Tibet pilgrimage tours, an oasis of peace and serenity, and the beacon that draws many travelers to western Tibet every year. It is said that a single circumference erases the accumulated sins of a lifetime, while 108 rims achieve Salvation or Nirvana.
