A historic first: Pilgrims gaze at Mount Kailash from Indian Soil!

Pilgrims viewed the sacred Kailash peak from the Old Lipulekh pass inside India for the first time. Five pilgrims trekked 2.5 km and were emotionally overwhelmed at this historic sight. The trip was part of a pilot project by the Uttarakhand tourism department since the pilgrimage through Tibet has been suspended due to COVID-19.
