Everest.
Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, which is known as "Sagarmatha" in Nepali means “forehead of sky”, the goddess mother of the world, has long been the greatest attraction for nature lovers and trekkers alike. “Chomolungma” is the Tibetan name meaning “Goddess of wind”.

Everest trekking offers you a great opportunity to have unique experiences. Throughout Everest, trekking are overwhelmed with views of unbelievable peaks, Buddhist monasteries, and friendly Sherpa villages. Perhaps some may even have a glance of the Yeti! The local people believe that the Pangboche Monastery actually has in its possession the real scalp of this Himalayan legend.
The Sherpa were nomadic people who first settled in the Solukhumbu District (Khumbu) then gradually moved westward along salt trade routes. According to Sherpa oral history, four groups migrated out of Solukhumbu at different times, giving rise to the four main Sherpa clans: Minyagpa, Thimmi, Sertawa and Chawa. These four groups have since split into the more than 20 different clans that exist today. About 1840 Sherpa ancestors migrated from Kham. Mahayana Buddhism religious conflict may have contributed to the migration in the 15th and 16th centuries. Every village has its own monastery as even those Junbesi and Tengboche Monastery is very famous. Tengboche is well-known because of its spectacular and unique location. It lies on the main route to the Base Camp of Mount Everest and offers the first clear views of the highest mountain in the world. Climbers do worship in this monastery before the start of climb.
