In 2010 AD, Ngari Gunsa Airport (4274m.) became the fourth highest airport in the world to be used for both military and public purposes. In China's autonomous region of Tibet, it is located in the town of Shiquanhe (Ali) in Ngari Prefecture. Two hours' flight from Ali Airport takes us to Darchen and 350 km from Ali is the holy Manasarovar Lake. The holy Kailash Parvat (6714m.) is nearby Manasarovar. It is a popular pilgrimage destination for followers of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Bonpo. Manasarovar, or Mount Kailash, is a mysterious mountain considered to be the dwelling place of Hindu gods Shiva and Parvati. At an altitude of 6714m., Kailash Parvat is considered by Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bonpo to be the ultimate power on this planet.
The sacred Kailash Peak and Manasarovar Lake have also made Tibet a world famous pilgrimage destination. In addition, the four great rivers of Asia originate from this snow - covered peak, namely the Brahmaputra, Ganges, Indus and Sutlej. According to Hindu tradition, circumambulating this holy peak of 53 km perimeter is a way to cleanse the soul of all known and unknown sins. Buddhists worship Mount Kailash as the meditating spot of Lord Shakyamuni and Jains believe that their first Saint obtained Moksha while meditating there. In its southern side, the Buddhist symbol "Swastika" has elevated its spiritual significance. It is taken as a symbol of good fortune. A large number of devotees come to land on this divinity from different parts of the world, especially from India.
South side of Mount Kailash, another religious Lake called Manasarovar is situated. We will spend one night at Ali airport after finish Kailash Kora. Having spent one night in Lhasa, we flew back to Kathmandu the next morning.

Oxygen is less at higher altitudes. The inclement weather and high altitude induces certain illness generally not encountered over the plains. Headache, nausea, lassitude, lethargy, breathlessness, general uneasiness [malaise], high irritability, light loss of balance, disorientation, incoherence and insomnia are a few. It is common to all irrespective of the age, sex and physical fitness. Gradual acclimatization is the best answer. Tranquilizers, sleeping dose and strong anti-biotic must be avoided. Some of symptoms indicate that the body mechanism is readjusting to new environments. The best idea is deliberately slow down all the activities and follows the following rules
Relax-do not exerts, be excited, make rest
Reduce talking each other
Walk slowly – adopt one third of your speed and space.
Keep your load light.
Walk for 30 minutes & rest for 5 minute whenever you feel uncomfortable, just stop; rest and relax.
Ignore the sudden outbursts of fellow pilgrims and avoid arguments.
Observe silence with smile, never go too high and too fast.
Consume plenty of liquids; never proceed with an empty stomach.
Chant a prayer or visualize everything around to suit your pleasant thoughts or put on the earphones and listen to your favorite music, Bhajans, chanting etc.
Be careful not to catch a cold. It is better to be over clothed than under protected.
On-route avoids taking bath or drinking water from Lake Streams or rivers, as your system is not conditioned for this.
Protect yourself against dust and direct sunshine during the long stretches of driving.
Face, feet and hands must be well protected.
The uneven ground, steep slope and slushy banks are full of potholes.
Do not combine walking and sightseeing together.
Always listen to your guide or the one with experience. Never leave the group.
On this trip, over exertion is to be avoided and drinking plenty of fluids is recommendable. During winter
