About This Tour

Mount Kailash Yatra The Himalayas, the crown of the Indian peninsula has remained the cultural locus for its teeming millions. It is in the Himalayas, as the Skanda Purana records, where Lord Shiva lives, and there the mighty river Ganges fell from the foot of Lord Vishnu like “the slender thread of a lotus flower”.
The myths descend down from Mount Kailash to the shores of Lake Mansarovar. It is said that Maharaja Mandhata has discovered the Lake. The legend goes: Mandhata had done penance on the shores of Mansarovar at the foot of the magnificent mountains named after him. According to the legend, there was a big mansion down below on its bottom. It is said to be the abode of the king of Nags the serpent gods and in the middle of the arc like surface of the lake once upon there stood a huge tree. Its fruits fell into the lake with the sound Jam thus, the surrounding region came to be known as Jambu-ling or Jambu-Dvip in the Hindu Puranas.
