India's New Path: Kailash Mansarovar Yatra via Uttarakhand
During the long delay of the Kailash Mansarovar trip still affects things, the Uttarakhand Tourism Department is working hard to find other ways. Their goal is to give visitors a special chance to see Mount Kailash. People think it's the home of Lord Shiva and can be seen from Lipulekh Peak which has been around for ages.
This journey is very important in Hinduism. It's believed that if you just look at Mount Kailash, all your dreams will come true - a holy place linked with Lord Shiva. Before, the trip to Kailash Mansarovar needed going through next-door countries like China and Nepal.
Unluckily, the yatra stopped in 2020 because of worldwide health problems and it hasn't started again yet. Now, good news lets people see the big Mount Kailash from Uttarakhand. This means they don't need to go all the way to Tibet for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra pilgrimage anymore.
