The mountain landscape of the remote Damodar Himal in the Mustang region of Nepal an area first visited by Bill Tilman


Mustang formerly the Kingdom of Lo, is a remote and isolated region of the Nepalese Himalayas Upper Mustang was a restricted demilitarized area until 1992 which makes it one of the most preserved regions in the world, with a majority of the population still speaking traditional Tibetan languages whilst Tibetan culture has been preserved by the relative isolation of the region from the outside world. Life in Mustang revolves around tourism, agriculture and trade Photo shows views of the high arid mountain plateau and high mountain peaks of upper Mustang close to the small village of Mustang
