Helambu, known as the treasure of Dharma is an unknown destination in the tourist map of Nepal or unexposed to tourism for ages. It is also famous for its scenic beauty and unbelievably majestic site. Situated far away from Kathmandu and close to the border of Tibet known as Kerung is one of the most important spiritual trekking destination for the western countries. Helambu represents the greatest historical spiritual and cultural heritage of Tibetan Buddhism of Ningmapa and Kagupa sect. It was Helambu the guru Padmasambhava meditated many years and blessed these beautiful mountains on his way to Tibet during the middle of 7th century. The Tibet’s great Yogi Milarepa also came here and meditated in a cave during the 10th century for many years. He also blessed this place before he left for Tibet flying. The people since then practice the spirituality in this mountainous region. There are many magnificent old monasteries and cultural houses which will definitely attract the tourist. We have meditation course here in Helambu to offer for the tourist.
