Upper Mustang lies north of the two 8,000 meter peaks Annapurna and Dhaulagiri. The arid place with snow-capped mountains and barren hills reaches deep inside the vast Tibetan plateau. Cold winds sweep through narrow canyons and over plains. Erosion has left its marks in bizarre rock formations. It takes some effort to discover the scenic and cultural beauties and mysteries of this area.
