The region of Tibetan
influence north of Kagbeni Village is generally referred to as Upper
Mustang. The ancient Kingdom of Mustang the capital Lo Manthan was
attached to Tibet in the 14th century, Although it retained its identity
as an autonomous dynasty throughout the centuries - is a walled city
with their own present King Jigme Prabal Bista and the people still
remain predominantly Tibetan. Still somewhat restricted (special permits
are required) the trek to Lo Manthan (3730 m) refers to the arid
Tibet-like region at the northern end of Kali Gandaki. The trek to Lo
Manthan is through an almost treeless barren landscape. Strong winds
usually howl across the area in the afternoon, generally subsiding at
night. Annexed by Nepal in 17 century, but untouched by the outside
world or the Chinese Cultural revolution, 14th century monasteries still
remain active to preserve this magnificent Trans- Himalayan
kingdom, with their unrivalled Buddhist shrines with cliff hanging
monasteries, thankas, mandalas and deities and cave dwelling people. In
this wild lunar landscape of unreal color and beauty, ruggedly carved
mountains reach up to deep blue skies, while icy peaks glimmer
majestically to the south. Vast and barren ridges extend to the northern
horizon making one feel like an insignificant dot on a timeless
landscape.
