Lord Shiva
Among the thousands of deities of Hinduism, Lord Shiva is the most beloved and the most sought after lord. Lord Shiva finds a great place in the heart of all devotees, be it human beings, the Devataas or the Rakshasaas. He is called 'Bhola Baba' because of his uniqueness of being simple, and he grants whatever the devotee asks for. This is the reason why he is has a large following in all the 3 worlds of Akash, Bhumi, & Patal. 'Bhola Baba' filled with Vairagya (dispassion) is the joy of all spiritual seekers.

Mt. Kailash, claimed to be the apex of the Hindu religious axis, is also one of the highest mountains in Tibet at 22,022 feet. Lord Shiva resides over here among the peaceful Himalayas. A mythological story says that Lord Shiva once built a house for himself but gave it away to a devotee who asked for it. Thus, without changing his residence he settled in the mountain of Kailash. This is his abode where he stays with his whole family including his wife Goddess Parvati and children Lord Ganesha and Lord Kartikiya, and the other Shiv Ganas (group of Shiva Devotees) like Nandi and others. According to ancient religious texts, the abode of Lord Vishnu is called Vaikuntha, the abode of Lord Bhrama is called Bhramaloka and the abode of Lord Shiva is called Kailash. Of the three, one can only go bodily and return in this life from Kailash, having experienced divinity. The Hindus, Buddhist and Jains all alike travel to this place as pilgrims. A journey to Kailash Mansarovar is considered as a once in a lifetime achievement.

Tibet
Mount Kailash and Lake Mansarovar are situated in Tibet. It is a rich and beautiful land approx. 4,000 m (13,120 ft) above sea level. Tibet is a home to many mountains over 8,000 m (26,240 ft). India, Nepal, Bhutan and Burma surround Tibet. Travelers who get the opportunity to visit this land experience spiritual traditions, temples and monasteries, lakes and rivers, and mighty snow clad peaks.



Mansarovar
The word 'Mansarovar' is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Manas' which means mind, and legend has it that Lord Brahma created this lake from his mind. Parashuram's ashram too is said to be situated on a hill on the banks of the Mansarovar. In the periphery of this sacred mountain is the lake of Mansarovar. Lake Mansarovar, at 14,950 feet, is also said to be one of the highest fresh water lakes in the world. Kailash Mansarovar is a place for divine ablution. A dip in this lake is bound to purify you from the sins of many births. Rakshas Taal - the twin lake along with Mansarovar is where Bhasmasur burnt himself.

Trithapuri
It is situated 70 km west of Kailash, on the banks of the River Satlaj. It is a very colorful area with hot spring. It is believed to be the place where the demon Bhasmasur was burnt to ashes. The area comprises red and white mountains.
