Kailash Mansarovar
The Abode of Lord Shiva - Journey to the Most Sacred Peak
The Sacred Journey
Mount Kailash, standing at 6,638 meters in the Tibetan Himalayas, is revered by Hindus as the abode of Lord Shiva and a cosmic axis in Hindu mythology. The circumambulation (Parikrama) of Kailash is one of the most challenging and spiritually transformative pilgrimages in the world.
Lake Mansarovar, the world's highest freshwater lake at 4,590 meters, is believed to be created by the mind of Lord Brahma. Taking a ritual bath in its sacred waters is considered to wash away sins of a lifetime.
