According to Hindu myth the most sacred Mt. Kailash formed six millions years ago when the mountains were in their formatting stage. Mt. Kailash is the youngest mountain that lies in Karakuram Range and Naga Parvat. Mount Kailash "Kang Rimpoche"; the sacred pilgrimage of Asia that lies in the South-West of Tibetan autonomous region of China-Nagri is accessible through four routes. Two via Nepal; one via India and one via Pakistan.
Despite being a sacred and venerated pilgrimage site for billions of Buddhists, Hindus, Jains & Practioners of the Bon regions, not more than a thousand to fifteen hundred outside from Tibet make trip each year. Mt. Kailash is a unique and the most venerated destination, et least visited among the world's major holy places.

From the Nepalese side more than thousand tourists, ever year, mostly Indians, Europeans and few US citizens undertake the demanding et fulfilling land journey of more than 800 kilometers.

Making joyous and love with his divine companion Parvati. For a Hindu, to make the laborious pilgrimage of Kailash and have Darshan (divine view) of Shiva adobe is to attain release from the clutches of ignorance and disillusons.

It is these springs that melt ever so slowly to form the ice lingam. And it is for darshan of this lingam that pilgrims brave every hazard. The size of the lingam waxes and wanes according to the season, and its peak, reaches a height of almost 13 to 14 feet. The cave is about 60 feet in length, 30 feet in width and 15 feet in height.
