    Tips

    June 18, 2019

    Tengboche Monastery is for me one of the most impressive places I have ever visited on my travels. On the horizon, and yet seemingly within reach, the summit giants Lhotse, Nuptse and Mount Everest build up. Breathless amazement, grasped devotion, speechless enthusiasm. And if the highest mountain in the world was not enough, the Ama Dablam with its "only" 6814 m is also in the foreground. The mother and her necklace is considered one of the most beautiful mountains in the world and is also referred to as the "Matterhorn Nepal". A young monk comes to us and talks in brittle French about his life in the monastery. Up here, he says, is always "cold."

      Delicious cakes in the monastery's own tea lodge.
