MUSTANG TREK
: |
 The region of Tibetan influence
north of Kagbeni Village is generally referred to as
Upper Mustang. The ancient Kingdom of Mustang – the
capital Lo Manthan was attached to Tibet in the 14th
century, Although it retained its identity as an
autonomous dynasty throughout the centuries - is a
walled city with their own present King – Jigme
Prabal Bista and the people still remain
predominantly Tibetan. Still somewhat restricted
(special permits are required) the trek to Lo
Manthan (3730 m) refers to the arid Tibet-like
region at the northern end of Kali Gandaki. The trek
to Lo Man than is through an almost treeless barren
landscape. Strong winds usually howl across the area
in the afternoon, generally subsiding at night.
Annexed by Nepal in 17 century, but untouched by the
outside world or the Chinese Cultural revolution,
14th century monasteries still remain active to
preserve this magnificent Trans-Himalayan kingdom,
with their unrivalled Buddhist shrines with cliff
hanging monasteries, thankas, mandalas and deities
and cave dwelling people. In this wild lunar
landscape of unreal color and beauty, ruggedly
carved mountains reach up to deep blue skies, while
icy peaks glimmer majestically to the south. Vast
and barren ridges extend to the northern horizon
making one feel like an insignificant dot on a
timeless landscape. |
