Mount Kailash via Lhasa 14D/13Nbeyonders2024-01-10T10:30:01+00:00
For Hindus, Mount Kailash is the abode of Lord Shiva. For Buddhists, the place is an embodiment of Lord Buddha. The first Jain saint, Adinath received his emancipation at this place. For the Bons, their saint Shenrad is said to have descended on this very peak. While Mount Kailash is bound by faith and wrapped in Nature’s arm, the travellers to Kailash are not only people with deep religious beliefs and sentiments, but people in search of adventure also.
The other important site near Kailash is Lake Mansarovar, which as per legend was created by Lord Brahma himself. Besides, Lake Mansarovar, there is another lake called Rakshas Tal which is located next to the Mansarovar Lake but is separated from it by a thin isthmus of mountains. While the Lake Mansarovar remains calm under every kind of weather conditions, the Rakhshas Tal is consistently stormy. These twin lakes carry a spiritual significance and are considered to be the symbols of the difference between the good and the bad.
