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 pack animals in the barren mountains of the Damodar Himal in upper Mustang
