Kailash Tour by Helicopter – Mount Kailash, (6714m/ 22027ft) high peak is situated to the north of the Himalaya in Tibet. It is the perfect mountain with splendid beauty, with 4 great faces. It is the spiritual center for four great religions: Buddhism, Hinduism, the Jain religion and Bonpo (the pre-Buddhist animistic religion of Tibet).
For the Hindus Mount Kailash is the earthly manifestation of Mt. Meru, their spiritual centre of the universe, described as a fantastic ‘world pillar’ 84,000 miles high, around which all else revolves, its roots in the lowest hell and its summit kissing the heaven. On the top live their most revered God, Shiva, and his consort Parvati.
For the Buddhists; believe that Kailash is the mome of the Demchok or Demchog Chakrasamvara; who represents supreme bliss. For the Jains (an Indian religious group), Kailash is the site where their first diviner achieved enlightenment. For the older, more ancient religion of Bon, it is the site where its founder Shanrab is said to have descended from heaven.
Kailash Tour by Helicopter is a suitable program for them who are willing to complete this Yatra easily however possible. This holy journey starts from Kathmandu to Nepalganj and Simikot by scheduled flight and from Simikot to Hilsa by chartered Helicopter Service.
