Situated
in the North of the Annapurna Himal and bordering
Tibet (China), the mustang Region used to be called
Mustang kingdom and was closed to foreigners.
Even after it was included Nepalese territory,
entry was tightly restricted for foreigners. Consequently,
it drew much attention as prohibited Kingdome.
Mustang is a most remote areas, it is a geographic
extension of the Tibetan plateau, a windswept
land of mountains preserving the last authentic
remains of Tibetan culture. This area was completely
isolated from the rest of the world, and only
opened to trekking groups in 1991. The barley,
potatoes and buckwheat grown here are the staple
diet of the villages through which our trek passes
to reach the ancient walled fortress city of Lo
Manthang. From here the border of Tibet is just
a stone's throw away. From Lo Manthang we can
either return along from same trail or head back
to Jomsom by way of the sacred pilgrimage site
of Muktinath |
