The “jewel of snow”, as it stands to mean, Mt. Kailash, is simply striking in the way it raises high above the surrounding range, remaining always snow-capped and captivating the imagination of all and alike.  All the mountains for almost all the people of every faith in the Asian continent are considered to be the abode of Gods. For them it is where the sanctity of purity resides and any pilgrimage to these highly revered sanctuaries will deliver them the path to Godhood and the means to attaining immortality and the wisdom to realizing the final goal of human lives. Among such faiths, the traditional Buddhist cosmology refers Mt. Kailas as the Mount Meru; the great mythological mountain forming the axis of our world system. Likewise, for the Hindus it is where the Trinity (one of ice and rest of the two; earth and fire) assume the form of dust once in every cyclic period and therefore contribute 

Traditional Buddhist cosmology has often connected Kailash with Mount Meru, the great mythological mountain that forms the axis of this world system. Because of its religious associations, many Hindu and Buddhist ascetics, hermits and pilgrims have been drawn to the area of the mountain for the past two thousand years or so to see it and to offer their  prayers, absolve sins, circumambulate it and to practice austerities and meditation. Immediately South of Mount Kailash, across the base of the majestic Mount Gurla Mandhata, are the two lakes famously known as Mansarovar and Rakkshas Tal (lake). They are the highest bodies of fresh water in the world, with Manasarovar (330 sq. km), at 4,558 meters, about fifteen meters higher than Rakshas Tal. Of the two, Manasarovar is considered by both the Buddhist and Hindus to be more worthy of veneration. Buddhists believe that Queen Maya, the Buddha's mother was carried here by the gods and washed prior to giving birth to the Buddha.


There are two approaches to Mt. Kailash. The trip starts with a flight to Simikot in Western Nepal and crossing over into Tibet and doing the round tour of Mt. Kailash and ending the trip with an over Land drive to Kathmandu (21 days) via Zhangmu or Lhasa (25 days). An easier shorter 15 days approach is from Zhangmu to Mt. Kailash and back to Zhangmu. This is a drive tour with 3 days round tours of Kailash.
