Mount Kailash is a repository for the spiritual energy in the universe, carrying an eternal spirit of holiness. The hallowed peaks of Mount Kailash are known to be the ‘stairway to heaven’. Hindus, Buddhists, and Jains alike believe Kailash Mansarovar to be the holiest destination on Earth. Mount Kailash Mansarovar tour remains the most coveted yatra for millions of Shiva Devotees as this holy mountain is believed to be the abode of Lord Shiva. 

However, the COVID-19 pandemic led to the suspension of the Kailash Yatra for nearly 5 years, since the year 2020. The roads remained non-functional due to specific guidelines from the Chinese Government for Indian tourists. This unexpected turn of events shattered the dreams of many Shiva devotees eagerly waiting for Kailash Mansarovar’s Darshan. Many people even faced troubles with their visas/ permits and other documentation. The closure of the routes due to covid-19 pandemic surfaced as the core impediment in carrying out the yatra for Indian tourists. 

Following the five long years of waiting after COVID-19, Trip To Temples launched the Kailash Aerial Darshan option (chartered flight to Mount Kailash), allowing travellers to experience Mount Kailash Darshan without permits. Perhaps, this isn’t the end, we have a lot more to offer to our travellers in the spectrum of the Kailash Mansarovar trip. 

Presently, we have added a fresh segment to our Kailash Mansarovar Yatra from Nepal package. With a vision to streamline the process of yatra from start to finish, we have launched the exclusive Mount Kailash Darshan in just 6 days via Nepal’s Limi Lapcha Valley. This tour is thoughtfully designed for all those who enjoy road trips more than chartered flight journeys. And so, our Kailash Darshan via Limi Lapcha Valley tour promises the quickest and easiest way to fulfil this once-in-a-lifetime spiritual journey.
