Gokyo LakeKhumbu, the land of Sherpas, situated in the unique place. Typical Himalayan zone, surrounded by the gigantic mountains, among which the highest mountains like Everest and Lhotse.
We can see the numerous Sherpa villages, the well known is Namche Bazar, situated magnificently in an altitude of 3440m in the form of horseshoe.
The lakes of Gokyo are protected amazingly by the beautiful mountains. Uniquelly from the peak of Gokyo (5483m), one can easily glimpse to the east the view of Mt. Makalu (8463m).
From the top of Kala Pathar (5545m), the panoramic view of Mt. Everest and its surrounding peaks is one of the breathtaking experiences for the mountains lovers.
The Monastry of Tyangboche, situated in an altitude of 3860m, offers the panoramic view of glazin mountains: Thamserku (6608m) and Kangtega (6685m) on the south; Mt. Ama Dablam (6856m) to the est; the massive chain of Kongday (6187m) to the west, at the direction of Namche Bazar and Mt. Lhotse( 8601m) and Mt. Everest (8848m) to the north.
At the first plan, the monastry with lively colours and its small votive monastry (Chorten), where the prayers flags are fluttering in the wind. The meeting with Sherpas, their innate hospitality and their generosity will make the trekking an unforgatable event.
