Muktinath Temple, located at 3,710 meters in Nepal's Mustang district, is a sacred site for Hindus and Buddhists. Hindus believe bathing in its 108 holy water spouts (Muktidhara) grants liberation (moksha), while Buddhists revere it as Chumig Gyatsa ("Hundred Waters"), linked to Guru Rinpoche’s meditation. The tour blends spirituality, adventure, and Himalayan landscapes, with options for road journeys, flights, or helicopter rides

  1. 108 Muktidhara: Ritual bath under sacred spouts.

  2. Eternal Flame (Jwala Mai): A natural gas-fed fire worshipped by both faiths.
  3. Golden Statue of Vishnu: The main deity, adorned with Buddhist prayer wheels nearby.
