Muktinath Tour Package by Road From Kathmandu

Muktinath is a revered holy place for both Hindus and Buddhists.

It is situated in Nepal's Lower Mustang area in Muktinath Valley, at an elevation of 3800 meters, at the base of the Thorong La mountain pass. The name Mukti Kshetra, which means "place of salvation" in Hinduism, is given to the holy site. Buddhists primarily worship at the shrine, which has a strong Sri Vaishnava origin. Among the 108 Divya Desam that are officially available, this temple is ranked as the 105th. Thiru Saligramam was the name of this place prior to the advent of Buddhism.  This is where the Saligrama sila is located, which is believed to be Sriman Narayana's naturally occurring shape (The Hindu Godhead). Additionally, it is one of the 51 Sakthi peetams. One of the eight most sacred shrines for Hindu Vaishnavas, known as Svayam Vyakta Ksetras, is the central shrine of Sri Muktinath, which predominates among 108 Hindu Sri Vaishnava Divyadesam. The other seven shrines are Srirangam, Srimushnam, Tirupati, Naimisharanya, Totadri, Pushkar, and Badrinath. Water is pumped through 108 bull faces in the prakaram (outer courtyard). It is below zero degrees. For Hindus, Buddhists, and Vaishnavas alike, it is regarded as one of the greatest sites for pilgrimage.

Just go the opportunity to go Muktinath Temple. It is a beautiful and peaceful place. Mountains surround the temple, and the views are stunning. The temple is also well-maintained, and the staff of Max Holidays, which scheduled our trip were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend visiting Muktinath Temple if you are in Nepal.  Also i would advise to contact Max Holidays to plan your trip, they have been the best travel company so far.

I wanted to get a inquiring about travelling to Muktinath, so i contacted Max Holidays. The answer was swift, and it included a detailed itinerary outlining what was covered and what wasn't. The operations manager met us when we landed, took us to the hotel, and gave us a detailed explanation of the entire trip. Minor adjustments were made, and we were welcomed right away. We had a great time on our trip to Muktinath. Everything was planned carefully, efficiently, and on time. It was an excellent deal for the money and an unforgettable trip to Nepal.

I recently planned to go ona trip as a solo traveller  to the Mukhtinath Temple. Yeh mera pehla solo trip tha toh i was bit nervous, but somehow i managed and maine Max Holidays se baat ki. They told me about their different packages aur kaha ki apne convenience ke hisab se choose kr lijiye. Uske baad they scheduled my trip and made all the arrangements.  Mera whole trip was super fun, aur main bahoot excited thi to go on a trip as a solo traveller. Sbse zyada jo merko pasand aya was the food, because i am foodie, and the arrangements were awesome. Thankyou, Max holidays.
