Muktinath Tour
Muktinath is a sacred place for both Hindus and Buddhists located at the Lap of the Annapurna Mountain range in in Mustang. It is a religious shrine that has equal power to spell bound you with its natural beauty and its warm yet chilled cold weather. People of both faith consider it as a place for attaining salvation. Bathing in the 108 natural water sprouts in the premises of the temple is considered holy by people of both faith equally. Since ancient times many Hindu sadhus and Buddhist monks have done penance at this holy site and affirmed it as a place to attain emancipation from the cycle of life and death.
