Kailash: A Mountain Of Myths

Mount Kailash

A huge peak in the Tibetan Plateau that breathes respect and mystery, it is considered sacred as the axis mundi, the center of the globe by Buddhists, Jains, Hindus, and Bon

Perfect Pyramid Shape

Given its remarkably symmetrical, pyramid-like form, many question if it is a natural structure

Forbidden Summit

Despite multiple efforts, no one has ever made it to the summit

Many pilgrims claim to experience rapid growth of hair and nails while in the region

Accelerated Aging

Days appear to go by more quickly around the mountain, according to some reports
