THE PLACE
In the middle of high Himalayan settlements of Tibetan-speaking people is a village called Jomsom. Life here is a balance of hard work, and ancient culture. Jomsom, at an altitude of 2713 M., is often thought of as an attractive and even romantic example of high-altitude settlement. There may be no other resort in the world from where the Himalayan peaks can be admired so closely. Giants of the Himalayan Range like Nilgiri, Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna Range seems almost at touching distance.
Many visitors find their most lasting impression of Nepal comes not from the ancient temples in the urban valleys but from visits to places like Jomsom and its exhilarating spiritual environment. Jomsom area is not only the most popular trekking destination in Nepal but also the gateway to Upper Mustang — "Kingdom" within the Hindu Kingdom of Nepal. Jomsom is also the gateway to The Muktinath shrine that holds great religious significance to both Buddhists and Hindus. |
