Nestled in the breathtaking mountain landscape of the Himalayas, lies the Buddhist monastery Tengboche, which is one of the three oldest in the Khumbu area. It is located at an altitude of 3867 meters within Sagarmatha National Park, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. This beautiful stone masonry was built in 1916 by Lama Gulu and has since been rebuilt several times and furnished. Magnificent views of Mount Everest, Nuptse, and Ama Dablam reveal that spiritual place that can provide rewarding and inspiring experiences.

To visit the monastery is during the Everest Base Camp, Ama Dablam Base Camp and Annapurna and Everest trekking tours.
