Itinerary description

|
Show original
We dedicated the rest day to go see the Jhong Caves, we had three options: walking, horseback riding (4 h. Round trip) and by car. We chose the last one, we believed that we were going to be relaxed, but our mistake, in the 9 km, our track was full of stones of all sizes, this caused large boats, some of us could see how hard the roofs of these cars are, in Some places the inclination exceeded any limit and when we had a river in front that none of us would cross by car, our driver did not think about it, reducing and moving. Total that when we arrived at the place, we would rest watching the caves but we had to return.
The Jhong caves or any that can be found in these places are very interesting, in the mountain they dig caves which communicated with each other, at the time they were inhabited by people, today they are in disuse and can be visited.
We spent the afternoon visiting Lo-Manthang and some temple that we could not see the day before.
