| The
forbidden Kingdom |
 Situated
North of the Annapurna Himal on the Tibetan
border, Mustang is a rugged mysterious arid
and haunting wilderness region set amid
a lunar landscape of wind eroded hills and
cliffs.
A Kingdom within a Kingdom,
Mustang's wealth was derived from its position
on the Kali Gandaki / Thak Khola trade
route to Tibet, the region still retains
its own King. |
| |
| 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. |
