tour package offered by Blue Mountain Travels & Tours Pvt. One can discover
the true natural splendor of Tibet and Nepal throughout this visit.

Budhanilkantha (Bishnu Sleeping Temple), Mt. Kailash, and Lake Mansarovar are also
destinations on the pilgrimage.
The
Kailash Mansarovar yatra is specifically created for devoted pilgrims who are
eager to traverse the difficult route via the mountains of Nepal and Tibet to
arrive at the most sacred destination and see Lord Shiva's abode. Mt. Kailash,
the holiest mountain in Hinduism and Buddhism, is the tallest peak in the
Kailas range of the Himalayas, rising to a height of 6740 meters. The mountain is believed to be
the ultimate residence of the Hindu deity of Destruction Lord Shiva and his
wife goddess Gauri.
You'll
perform puja and take a dip in the Mansarovar lake. Many people believe that
going to Mansarovar and bathing in the Lake will atone for all of their sins
and lead them to a state of salvation. Many pilgrims have traveled to the
Kailash Mansarovar since ancient times. The journey used to be difficult, but
it is now lot easier because of modern transportation and travel agencies including
