Twin holy peaks wonder, Gauri Shankar in Himalayas- Nepal


In our visit to Nepal, one of the most important venture was Mountain flight.The mountain flight though expensive was worth the money. In few minutes, we felt as the part of Himalayas. I will write a separate post on this as it deserves. Gauri Shankar in Himalayas is what I want to highlight in this post.

Did you know?

  • Twin peaks have two summits Northern (higher) called as Shankar and Southern summit called as Gauri. Owing to steep surfaces and long corniced ridges these peaks are tough to climb.
  • Gauri Shankar peaks have deep religious significance for Hindus and Buddhist Rolwaling Sherpas
