Kailash Mansarovar Yatra
The supreme pilgrimage for the followers of Hindu, Jain, Boudh and Bon religions, Kailash Mansarovar Yatra is performed in the Tibet Autonomous Region, China. Every year from May to October a large number of devotees travel to Tibet via Lucknow, Kathmandu and Lhasa to be a part of the fixed departure group tours to Kailash Mansarovar. With elevation 6638 meters, the pyramid or diamond shaped Mount Kailash is situated in Himalaya’s Kailash mountain ranges a few kms drive away for Lipulesh pass Uttrakhand and Hilsa village Nepal. As the per spiritual books of Hindus, it is said that Mount Kailash is the axis mundi of the earth and this is the place where Lord Shiva lives with His family.
Very close to Mount Kailash and Nandi parvat, Ashtapad is known to the followers of Jain religions being the birthplace of the Jain religion as the holy place where the first teerthankara Bhagwan Adinath attained Nirvana and game birth to Jain religion. On the other hand the Tibetan Buddhists know this mount as Buddha Demchok, symbolizing supreme harmony. In all these religions it is believed that visiting this place, having a holy bath in Lake Mansarovar and performing kora (circumambulation) of Mount Kailash is believed to cleanse one's sins and purify the soul
