#trekking #lakes #staycation

Flying over Everest, flying over EBC, flying over the road we came to ~ overlooking the snow-capped mountains that climbed, the previous look turned into a down-view, the road was at the foot, feeling a thousand. Maybe this life will not go on this hiking trail again, but it is deeply drawn in my heart, accompanying me to go further.

D10 of EBC starts at 6 o'clock in the morning, this time in the south of Everest Base Camp, and the sun shines slowly on the land. Many people have left their lives on this land in order to prove their meaning. My guide, the collaboration of climbing Everest 2 years ago, more than 20 lives stay in the Himalayas, he is a survivor, listening to the distress and pride in his eyes, seems to understand the "George Mallory" in Everest "Because the mountain is there."

Exploring Namche Bazaar

Taking a hike into the gateway to Mount Everest through Namche Bazaar which for those familiar with it know it as the unofficial capital in the Khumbu and Everest region. This is one of the last giant hub in the region to get all your supplies, chill with the bakeries around, get some drinks at the pub and also get acclimatised before going further up your journey. #gohiking

Mesmerizing Trek at Namche Bazaar

#CelebrateWithTrip Namche Bazaar (3440m) is the unofficial capital of the Khumbu region of Nepal, and is a major stop-off point for trekkers and climbers heading for Mount Everest base camp. The village is located on crescent shaped mountain slopes that offer stunning views of the mountains across the valley. It is a grueling 3 to 4 hour climb up from the river to Namche, and at 3,500 metres, it is possible to suffer altitude sickness here. Therefore, it is advisable to spend at least two nights in the village to acclimatize like we did. The temperature was sooo cold that we spent nights near the fireplace The place is so mesmerizing and no words can describe the experience we had here. we cant wait for our next journey on the next trek. #hiking #namchebazaar #nepal #everest #everestpanoramatrek

White covered snow Namche Bazaar

Since we put up two nights at Namche Bazaar for acclimatization purpose, we had more chance to explore the beautiful place. Temperature and weather changed rapidly within these two days. The snow quickly build up the at the end of first day we arrived here. Therefore the place is so beautiful covered in snow. We didnt let the chance slipped away so we hiked up higher and we visited the Tenzing Hillary statue. we took lots of pictures with the beautiful mountains and blue skies as our background. As we finished around 4 hours hike, we return to our place to eat, pray and rest. Tomorrow we have more adventure towards Tengboche #hiking #mountain #snow #everestpanoramatrek #everest #nepal
