Description

When 99% treks have derived their names from famous places, then why this trek is called the Tamang Heritage Trail? The fact is this trek helps you to explore the culture of the Tamang people, and as you do this under it, the beautiful mountain of the Langtang Region will win your heart in the most unimaginable way. What you see there is rare, not only this, you also see rare beauty in rare, isolated place of the world. Where you trek is also one of the best national parks of Nepal, and the best always has a value that can be felt only during the trekking. Tamang Heritage Trail is true to what it sounds, and there is nothing better than this when it comes to studying the Tamang Culture and looking at magnificent mountains.

This trail does not stick only to these, only to the above-mentioned because it also has the mountain lakes, such as  the Parvathi Kunda, the Dudh Kunda and the Bhairav Kunda which have a source in the Himalayas, which are as sacred as the mountains that the Hindu believe, and which shimmer under the blue sky in the lonely place of the world that we city dwellers often call to tell what it is. The trail is also scenic, and we give so much importance to it while saying that the person listening to us fall in love as they hear about the description of the mountain; the description of the Jugal and the Ganesh Himal; the description of the touching soul mountain. Many mountains are there, and some of these are unheard, and it is better not to make them public; it is the best point of the Tamang Heritage Trail because surprise is always beautiful.

It was a palace where kings were crowned and have spectacular Nepali architectures. Now, this palace is a museum, and the monuments that you see here such as temples and statues date back to the 17th and 18th centuries. Some are older than these.

Swayambhunath is more than 2,000 years old. It is also known as Monkey Temple and located on the top of the hill. It’s four sides bear the faces of Lord Buddha. It is also a stupa which has statues on its base, and they represent five Dhyani Buddhas – Vairocana, Ratnasambhava, Amitabha, Amoghasiddhi, and Aksobhya. Each of these represents the five qualities of Buddhist wisdom.

Pashupatinath is the temple of Lord Shiva and located not far away from the heart of Kathmandu. It is one of the holiest temples of the Hindus. Only Hindus are permitted to enter from the main gate to Pashupatinath Temple. As a visitor, you will enjoy the rich architectures of the temple from a distance. Inside the temple, there is a sacred Linga or the phallic symbol of Lord Shiva. If you are lucky, then you might see the Hindu Cremation taking place on the bank of the Bagmati River.

Bouddhanath is also a stupa. It is one of the holiest pilgrimages of the Buddhists. It has a white doom just like Swayambhunath and contains the bones of Kasyapa Buddha (Buddha incarnation), while others say it contains the bone of Lord Buddha.
