      Experience this Remarkable Pilgrimage Tour to Holy Mt. Kailash and Lake Mansarovar!
       
      It is striking in the way it rises high above the surrounding range and always remains snowcapped, thus its name in Tibetan "Gang Rinpoche", which means "Jewel of Snow". Traditional Buddhist cosmology has often connected Kailash with Mount Meru, the great mythological mountain that forms the axis of this world system. The power of this strange, domed peak has gripped the imagination of the people of India and Tibet since time immemorial. Because of its religious associations, many Hindu and Buddhist ascetics, hermits and pilgrims have been drawn to the area of the mountain for the past two thousand years or so to see it, circumambulate it, and to practice austerities and meditation.
       
      South of Mount Kailash, across the great plain of Barga at the base of the majestic Mount Gurla Mandhata lies the two lakes Mansarovar and Rakshas Tal. They are the highest bodies of fresh water in the world, with Mansarovar (330 sq km), at 4,558 meters, about fifteen meters higher than Rakshas Tal. Mansarovar is the larger of the two lakes and considered by Buddhists and Hindus to be more worthy of veneration. Buddhists believe that Queen Maya, the Buddha's mother, was carried here by the gods and washed prior to given birth to the Buddha.
