Why Kailash Mansarovar Is Famous?

Located at a distance of 865 Kms from Delhi, the Mount Kailash and Lake Mansarovar constitutes one of the grandest of the Himalayan beauty spots. Rather, it is known for its religious importance amongst the devotees of Lord Shiva (a Hindu God).

What is special about Mansarovar?

Of the two, Mansarovar, which lies at an altitude of 14, 950 ft, is considered the highest freshwater body in the world. While Mansarovar has a deep spiritual significance, its antithesis, Rakshas Tal, was born of the intense austerities performed by the demon King Ravana to please Lord Shiva.

Who climbed Kailash first?

The two struggled, but cannot tell the winner. Then they agreed that whoever climbed to the kangrinboqe peak would be the master of the mountain. As a result, Master Milarepa was the first to ascend the summit of Kailash and win on claiming the mountain for Buddhism.
