Trip Overview

Muktinath Temple is located in the Mustang District of Nepal (Annapurna Conservation Area;3710 meters,22 km North-East from Jomsom). The Temple is popular among Hindus and Buddhists. The place is called "Mukti Kshetra" by Hindus as they believe that one can obtain salvation if s/he worships here. Similarly, Buddhists call it Chumig Gyatsa (i.e The Hundred Springs).

It is believed to be one of the places where Guru Rinpoche meditated on his way from India to Tibet. Thus, the place beholds a great religious significance to both Hindus and Buddhists.

108 water sprouts are the major attraction of the temple. Devotees take a quick bath in the icy cold water coming from the sprouts. Jwala Mai temple, nearby, also adds a religious significance to this place.

You will have a scenic drive throughout the trip. The topographical diversity and its beauty will fascinate you. The trip can be an energy tonic to your soul, body, and mind.
