Trip Overview
Mt, Kailash is the mountain abode of Lord Shiva and the place of eternal pleasure for Hindus around the world. Kailash Mansarovar helicopter tour is a significant program for those who have very short time and like to complete this Yatra however easily. This tour is started from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj and Simikot by regular scheduled flight and flies to Hilsa by Helicopter. From Hilsa picked up by Land cruiser and drop at the border. Then we proceed to Mansarovar and Kailash Parikarma. Because of the maximum use of air service an altitude sickness problem can be seen comparatively more than the overland tour. Mt. Kailash (6700 M) lay in the west corner of Tibet and is locally known as Mt. Meru. It is believed that the founder of the Bon religion, Tonpa Shenrab has moved down from Heaven in this Mountain Meru. Tantric Buddhists also believe that Mount Kailash is the home of the Buddha Demchok who represents supreme bliss. In Jainism, Kailash is also known as Meru Parvat or Sumeru. Ashtapada, the mountain next to Mt. Kailash is the site where the first Jain, Rishabhadev attained spiritual liberation.
