Taking a hike into the gateway to Mount Everest through Namche Bazaar which for those familiar with it know it as the unofficial capital in the Khumbu and Everest region. This is one of the last giant hub in the region to get all your supplies, chill with the bakeries around, get some drinks at the pub and also get acclimatised before going further up your journey. #gohiking

#CelebrateWithTrip Namche Bazaar (3440m) is the unofficial capital of the Khumbu region of Nepal, and is a major stop-off point for trekkers and climbers heading for Mount Everest base camp. The village is located on crescent shaped mountain slopes that offer stunning views of the mountains across the valley. It is a grueling 3 to 4 hour climb up from the river to Namche, and at 3,500 metres, it is possible to suffer altitude sickness here. Therefore, it is advisable to spend at least two nights in the village to acclimatize like we did. The temperature was sooo cold that we spent nights near the fireplace The place is so mesmerizing and no words can describe the experience we had here. we cant wait for our next journey on the next trek. #hiking #namchebazaar #nepal #everest #everestpanoramatrek

#nationalparks Namche Bazar is the main center of the Khumbu area where many government offices are concentrated, free wifi cafes with mountain views, ATMs, restaurants, outdoor grocery stores specializing in trekking gear but the prices are a bit expensive compared to Kathmandu and other amenities. In addition, there is often a very crowded and fun weekend market on weekends, goods are transported from the bottom of the mountain by mostly Cow Porters, which is surprising why along the way up to Namche Bazar, there are more Yaks than in other places. People from other places like Lukla, Phakding will gather here to have fun on weekends. In general, on the mountain, this is one of the most fully equipped, most beautiful and most crowded places. In terms of agricultural products, people here mainly grow potatoes. Today we mainly went sightseeing around Namche Bazar, visited the headquarters of Sagarmatha National Park where we could see Mount Everest very close up, and learned more about the culture of the Sherpa people. #awesomepic#couplestrip
