Mount Kailash & Manasarovar region is steeped in religion and mythology and every year thousand of pilgrims traverse some of the remotest and toughest regions of the mighty Himalayas to pay their obeisance to Lord Shiva. It is a land where Lord Shiva lives with his consort Parvati. According to ancient religious texts, the abode of creator Brahma is called Brahmaloka, the abode of Lord Vishnu is called Vaikunta & the abode of Lord Shiva is called Kailash. Of the three, one can only go bodily and return in this life from Kailash having experienced divinity.

Hindus believe that Gods come to bathe every morning in holy lake Manasarovar between 3 to 5 am and this time is called 'Brahma-mahurat'. The word Manasarovar is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Manas' which means mind & legend has it that Lord Brahma created this lake from his mind.

It is supremely sacred mountain, cosmologicaly related with Mount Meru, the great mythological mountain that forms the axis of this world system.
