LHO MONTHANG
(22 days)
Mustang is the deformation of the
Tibetan Monthang, the plain of the hopes
or inhabitants of the borders. This
small kingdom always maintained the bonds privileged with
Tibet. Rajahs of Mustang whose dynasty remained until our days
with the aristocratic capital of Lhassa. Cultural and religious
bonds for these enthusiastic Buddhists, geographical bonds also,
the absence of large collars since having always made of
Mustang, the place of required passage enters India and Tibet by
the valley of Gandaki Kali. Closed to the tourists since always
today, Mustang half-opens. One of the last great authentic
Himalayan destinations within the sumptuous framework of the
large Himalayas (Dhaulagiri and Annapurna) and of the high
plateau Tibetan. Maximum altitude 4200 m
