According to legend, Lama Sange Dorje flew over the Himalaya and landed on rocks at Pangboche and Tenpoche, leaving his footprints. He is thought to have been responsible for the founding of the first gompas in Khumbu, at Pangboche and Thami. The incredible monastery of “Tengbouche”- The spiritual centre of the Sherpa land is a photographer's paradise and the highlight of the trek, set against the backdrop of Ama Dablam and other huge snowcapped peaks. This short trek introduces the traditional homeland of the Sherpas, the renowned mountain people that moved from the Tibetan plateau to settle in during the 15th Century.
