Mount Kailash

Mount Kailash is a sacred mountain in the far west of Tibet. This Mountain is considered holy by Hindus, Buddhists and Jains. In ancient texts, it is referred to as the center of the world. The reason can be understood from the geographical significance of it's place: within 30 miles radius, are the sources of mighty rivers Indus, Sutlej, Brahmaputra, and Karnali.
