These mountains have the sandstones from which the Cambodian temples like Angkor Wat were constructed. I am drawn to this mountain top which gives a beautiful view.

It’s really surreal to see this larva field, a reminder of the volcano beneath the crust.

Tibetan tablets usually depict prayers or mantras. And one can see prayer flags all around.

He has an unique way to carry the pot which is different from how people carry in lower altitude. He’s well accustomed to carry at such altitude. The monastery is overlooking the Manasarovar lake and such divine and beautiful place.
