3400M Above Sea Level

This bridge connects two parts of Jomsom city, separated by Kaligandaki river.



I had expected it to be pretty much cold there at the top, but it wasn't!
The view, the mountains, the deserted place, it was extremely beautiful!
Coming to this holy place, Muktinath, for the second time is indeed a great feeling! ;)



Descended towards Jomsom, we had the lunch in a Thakali and it didn't really taste good!





After coming back to Jomsom, we had to go to Marpha, a village 6 Kms South, but we couldn't get any vehicle so we had to walk and walk.


After walking for almost a couple of hours, we reached Marpha, and immediately, started having the peace of time. The apple farm and the old village looked absolutely marvelous.

We stayed in Hotel Tanpopo, the hotel was really great, also the food.

What I ate in Pokhara

It was almost 6 PM when we reached lakeside in our hotel, as our car broke down and we had to repair it in the highway. We were really tired and hungry, but didn't wanted to have the meal already so we decided to head toward the lakeside and get some food and drinks. We wanted something different, and the owner of the hotel brought these delicious soyabean and dried buffalo meat. It did really match with the vodka! But, they served it too slow! Food: 3 Service: 2 After gaining some energy from the spirit and food, we headed for some heavy meal. We headed towards a famous attraction for meal in pokhara "maili didi ko khana". As we reached the place, there were a lot of people waiting for their turn to devour the food. Luckily, we got the chance to sit on the queue and got our food after being patient for 50 minutes. In a while, came the food, not matching my expectations! Food: 3 Service: 2.5 The food was average! It didn't really excite me! An...

On the road to heaven

Packed bags, and we departed to our next destination for today. Today's destination is a city behind the mountain, the cold deserted city Jomsom, 160 km away. We started the journey. Got to see many breathtaking views on the way. From beni, the real thrill started, the road is a real mess! 72 kms of road through the mountains accompanied by small waterfalls, deepest gorge, merciless road, and below the road, is fast flowing,Kaligandaki River. The ride is nerve racking. The wheels of the bus have less than a couple of inches distance with the road. My phone almost fell from my hand while taking this video. However, the pain is balanced by the beauty of the nature that we happen to see outside of the window while our heads bang on the top of the bus while we try peeping through the window.    *Images taken from a moving bus.

Heaven's Food

As we reached in the lap of the himalayas, we accommodated in Hotel Dhaulagiri, the first thing we got to eat was the sukuti of chyangra, a mountain goat! It tasted heavenly! :D Along with it, we enjoyed local brandy, Marpha, which is made of apple! A friend happened to get us some hot Samosa, and getting to eat samosa at this place felt really great! Later, the dinner was served, and the dinner tasted equally good, as we had reached the altitude of 2750m, and it was pretty much cold there. We will be heading to muktinath, early tomorrow! :)
