Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by Helicopter (By Kathmandu)

On the second day of your Kailash Mansarovar tour package, have a delicious breakfast and start the day by visiting the famous Pashupatinath Temple. This temple in Kathmandu is one of a kind as it is the only temple dedicated to Lord Pashupatinath in the world. The temple is rumored to be more than a millennium old when a Shiva lingam was discovered at the site. One of the most prominent temples for Hindus in Asia, Pashupatinath Temple is flanked by the Bagmati River on both sides and is the largest temple complex in Nepal. Temple is an exclusive display of old-world architecture and has a gilded Pagoda style roof which is covered on four sides with silver and intricate wood carvings.

Once you experience the divinity of Lord Shiva at the Pashupatinath Temple, it is time to go one level up, as our Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by helicopter begins later in the afternoon when you fly to Nepalgunj, which is a small town located at just about an hour's distance from Kathmandu. Once you reach Nepalgunj check-in at the hotel and spend the rest of the day at your leisure. You can explore the markets of the Nepalgunj or just stay back in your resort and take rest.

In the mountains of Tibet, the air is very thin and for people coming from plains, it is vital to get acclimatized to the weather conditions here. Hence we have planned all our Kailash Mansarovar Yatra tour packages in such a manner that you get an entire day to acclimatize your body with the weather of Tibet. This will prepare your body for the upcoming journey. Purang is a small Tibetan town and you can go and visit Purang to get a glimpse of the Tibetan culture. But do not indulge in activities that will over exhaust you, as the journey ahead will become much more tiring if you do not allow your body to acclimatize with these climatic conditions.

Enjoy an overnight stay at the hotel in Purang.

On the next morning prepare yourself for the most wonderful journey of your life which will take you to Lake Mansarovar. This is one of the highest lakes in the world as it is situated at a height of 4590 meters above sea level. It is a firm belief of the Hindus that taking a dip in this lake will get you rid of all your sins. Crystal clear waters of the lake Mansarovar surrounded by beautiful snowy white Himalayas paint a scenic picture that is rare to be seen or found anywhere else in the world. Once you observe with all your senses, the beauty of Lake Mansarovar and the surrounding mountains it is time to make the holy parikrama of the lake which shall take around 3 hours.
