The region of
Tibetan influence north of Kagbeni is generally referred to as Upper
Mustang. The ancient Kingdom of Mustang – the capital Lo Manthan was
attached to Tibet in the 14th century, Although it retained its identity
as an autonomous dynasty throughout the centuries - is a walled city where
people still remain predominantly Tibetan. Still somewhat restricted
(special permits are required) the trek to Lo Manthan (3730 m) refers to
the arid Tibet-like region at the northern end of Kali Gandaki. Annexed by
Nepal in 17 century, but untouched by the outside world or the Chinese
Cultural revolution, 14th century monasteries still remain active to
preserve this magnificent Trans-Himalayan kingdom, with their unrivalled
Buddhist shrines with cliff hanging monasteries, thankas, mandalas and
deities and cave dwelling people. In this wild lunar landscape of unreal
color and beauty, ruggedly carved mountains reach up to deep blue skies,
while icy peaks glimmer majestically to the south. Vast and barren ridges
extend to the northern horizon making one feel like an insignificant dot
on a timeless landscape.
