Lake Mansarovar
This is the holiest lake in Tibet and, simultaneously, the highest freshwater lake in the world. It is located in the far western Ngari Prefecture, actually not too far from the great Mount Kailash. This lake lies at a height of about 4,583 meters above sea level and also covers approximately an area of 412 square kilometers. Actually, this holy place is like the heart of pilgrims on the Kailash Mansarovar lake tour.
It is also a lake in which one can clearly view the sapphire-colored waters, reaching as deep as 90 meters. The Himalayan peaks at the south enhance the fine view of the lake. This attracts many religions’ followers. It was primarily called “Machui Co” but the Buddhists named it “Manasarovar” in the 11th century when the Buddhists won a contest against the Bon. In addition, there are five Buddhist monasteries in this lake, with the most famous being Chiu.
The Kailash Mansarovar Lake Tour comprises an 82 Km yatra around it. Having a dip in this lake is believed to rid one of sins, and it is also considered to be the source for rivers like the Ghaghra, Brahmaputra, Sutlej, and Sindhu. Worshiping at Lake Manasarovar creates indeed a very strong religious emotion, pleasured by many devotees.
Mount Kailash
Mount Kailash is something like the Stairway to Heaven. It’s certainly the most beautiful peak in the Himalayan range. This is also the main highlight of the Kailash Mansarovar lake tour. Here are some rare facts about this special mountain. So high is Mount Kailash, rising 22,000 feet from the Tibetan Plateau. Therefore, making it quite hard to get to. Hindus and also the Buddhists literally see it as Mount Meru’s symbol.
Myth & Mystery of Mount Kailash Mansarovar lake tour
Buddhist and Hindu sacred texts include mentions of ancient monasteries as well as caves around Mount Meru. It is also the abode of holy sages in whose forms one can see visible and subtle forms by some good luck.
Thousands of pilgrims begin the sacred Mount Kailash Mansarovar lake tour every year; however, very few are able to complete a full circuit of the holy peak. Some of these climbers go with the goal of reaching the summit, but again, only a few dare accomplish this feat.
On the other hand, for Hindus, it is believed that no one should climb to the top of Mount Kailash. Doing so would defile the sanctity as well as many other subtle energies residing on this mountain. In a Tibetan legend, Milarepa the ascetic climbed Mount Meru but gave warnings to others against stirring up the residing deity at the top.
At the foot of this holy mount, two lakes exist: Manasarovar and Rakshas Tal. Manasarovar Lake reposes at 14,950 ft. in altitude, which is also the world’s highest freshwater lake. Rakshas Tal was born of the purity of King Ravana. It has salty water and also no sea plants or life within it.
The point where heaven meets earth is visible even on Google Maps.
Whereas its neighbour Rakshas Tal is full of wild waves, Lake Manasarovar remains calm despite the wind.
Whereas, travellers to Mt. Meru have felt an increase in the growth of their hair and nails. This is due to the special quality air that surrounds this ancient peak.
One group of Siberian climbers overstayed a certain point on this mountain and then began to age rapidly. A year later, in what could be termed almost as a surprising turn of events, old age claimed them.
