Tripcode: LTV
Sherpa villages, Buddhist monasteries and the highest peaks on Earth
In the shadow of Everest lies the traditional homeland of the Sherpas, the renowned mountain people who moved south from the Tibetan plateau. We explore the region using colourful village inns, maximising our contact with the Sherpa people. Our first destination is Namche Bazaar, the trading capital and main town of the Khumbu region. Leaving Namche, we follow trails used by many Everest expeditions to the two highlights of the trek, the famous monastery at Thyangboche, one of the finest mountain viewpoint in the world. Leaving the mountains we head down to the plains and visit Chitwan National Park where we hope to see rhino, sloth bear and many other species.
