This area is the home of spectacular mountain scenery and the renowned Sherpa people. This trip is known for its unique natural and cultural landscape. This valley is triangular in shape and is enclosed by mountain peaks of above 6000m and characterized by rugged landscape of mountains, glacial ridges, hanging valleys, U-shaped valley and fluvial terraces.
